→ Moldova visa for Russian citizens

Moldovan citizens enjoy visa-free travel to Russia, allowing for stays of up to 90 days per entry, a convenient arrangement primarily for tourism with only one type of tourist visa officially available. With common flight routes often transiting through major hubs, be mindful that Moscow operates on UTC+3, while Chisinau observes UTC+2, meaning you'll lose an hour upon arrival. Given the historical ties and significant Moldovan diaspora within Russia, communication can be eased by knowing that Russian is widely spoken, though Ukrainian and local dialects are also prevalent in certain regions.
