Which travellers require a transit visa/permission and which officially documented exemptions are important?

Nationals of the states on Moldova's published visa-required list must hold a visa for entry, exit and transit of Moldovan territory. For footnoted states, holders of diplomatic, service and special passports who travelled to Moldova without a visa under international treaties at the time the law was adopted are excepted.

  • The list does not name the visa type; linking the transit requirement to the Type B transit visa is an inference.
  • The footnote [2] exemption (EU/Schengen/UK/US/Canada permit or visa holders) is cited in the Short-Stay Visa C via.

Can the traveller remain airside, and under what circumstances must immigration control be crossed?

The application accepts either a valid travel ticket to the destination, or (if travelling by car) a driving licence, green card insurance and vehicle registration documents, indicating this route covers transit that may involve actually crossing Moldovan territory and its border by road, not only remaining airside.

  • The page does not itself use explicit "must cross immigration control" language; the border-crossing scope is inferred from the by-car document alternative.

What officially documented baggage collection, terminal, separate-ticket or self-transfer situations affect the immigration requirement?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the baggage, terminal-change and self-transfer rules.

What maximum transit period, overnight, airport-change or multiple-stop rules matter?

Proof of means of subsistence for the transit is calculated at a minimum of 30 euro per day of transit (not less than 300 EUR) specifically "for a stay shorter than 10 days," which implies transit under this visa is expected to last under 10 days, though the page does not state a single maximum-day figure directly as a visa-validity rule.

Limits of the record
  • The page ties a 10-day figure to the subsistence-proof calculation rather than stating it directly as the visa’s maximum transit duration.

If permission is required, what permission is it, where/how is it obtained, and what core onward-travel evidence is required?

The permission is the Type B transit visa. It requires an application form; a passport issued in the past 10 years and valid at least 3 months beyond departure; a recent 35mm x 45mm colour photo; approval (visa, residence permit) to enter the third state, where applicable a state bordering Moldova, unless no visa is needed there; and travel medical insurance covering the transit period of at least 30,000 euros. The official source does not state where the visa is applied for.

  • Where the Type B visa is applied for is not stated in its section.
