Are you planning on going to Moldova for a short stay? Depending on what country you are from, you might need to secure a Short Term Visa before you go. The Short Term visa is issued for a specified period, with a single or multiple entries, with the right to stay in Moldova no longer than 90 days within a period of 6 months from the date of first entry into the country. Short stay visa is granted for the following purposes:

- Transport
- Sports activities
- Cultural, scientific, humanitarian, religious, short-term medical treatment, other activities that do not contravene the laws of the Republic of Moldova
