→ Moldova visa for Santomean citizens

For Moldovan citizens planning a visit to the beautiful islands of São Tomé and Príncipe, an e-visa is readily available, allowing for stays of up to 45 days. While the visa fee is a modest €50, remember that São Toméan currency, the Dobra, is the local tender, so currency exchange at the airport or a reputable exchange bureau is a wise first step upon arrival. Given the usual flight routes, be prepared for a journey that can span over 20 hours with at least one layover, and consider that São Tomé and Príncipe operates on West Africa Time (WAT), which is typically 3 hours behind Chișinău.
