美国(United States) 前往 摩尔多瓦(Moldova) 签证要求

US ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for tourism in Moldova. You may enter visa-free and stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Just carry a passport valid for the duration of your stay (six months recommended). As of 2026, citizens of the United States holding an ordinary passport can travel to the Republic of Moldova for tourism without a visa. The visa-free allowance is up to 90 days within any rolling 180-day period, a limit actively tracked and enforced by Moldovan Border Police on entry and exit. Moldova is an EU candidate country but is NOT part of the Schengen Area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and the EU ETIAS authorization do not apply to Moldova; its 90/180 count is separate from Schengen. Moldovan law requires your passport to be valid for at least three months beyond your intended departure, though airlines may apply a six-month rule, so six months of validity is recommended. No advance application, fee, or online authorization is required for a short tourist visit. Travelers who wish to remain beyond 90 days must apply for a residence permit through the General Inspectorate for Migration before the legal stay expires. Note a special case: if you enter Moldova via the breakaway Transnistria region, you must register your arrival with Moldovan authorities within a few days, as that border is not an official Moldovan entry point. There were no 2024-2026 changes affecting US citizens (a February 2025 revision of Moldova's list affected Ecuador and Cuba, not the US). Verified against the U.S. Department of State country page, the Moldovan government eVisa portal, the Moldovan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the published visa policy of Moldova.
