Digital Nomad Visa Program Introduced in Moldova

As expected, effective September 20, 2025, Moldova commenced a digital nomad visa program.

Under the visa, eligible foreign nationals can work and live in Moldova for two years (with the possibility of renewal).

The visa is open to foreign nationals who either work remotely for employers registered outside Moldova or shareholders in such entities.

Applicants will need to be able to show proof of a working relationship with the foreign employer (if relevant), a history of a remote-work based salary based on the regulations, valid health insurance, and accommodation in Moldova, among other requirements.

Dependents can be sponsored under this visa type. A higher income threshold may be required for dependents.

This new category provides an immigration pathway for remote workers, which was previously not available.
