In the Republic of Moldova, there are many citizens of both Romania, the Russian Federation, and Ukraine. There are 300,000 to 400,000 Romanian citizens. The number of citizens of the Russian Federation is, unfortunately, unknown to the Moldovan authorities. However, the vast majority of Russian citizens reside in the territory of Transnistria.<\/p>\n

Often, citizens of the Russian Federation who are in Moldova do not have Moldovan citizenship. Moreover, they do not have a residence permit either. It is precisely because of this that many problems arise when requesting documents, when requesting documents in the Republic of Moldova.<\/p>\n

\"Citizens
Russian citizens living in Transnistria often do not attach importance to the lack of a residence permit and citizenship, – living essentially in Moldova<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

According to the legislation of the Republic of Moldova, foreign citizens (who do not have a second Moldovan citizenship) can stay in the country without a residence permit for no more than 90 days. However, many are unaware of this. If you are a citizen of another state and do not have citizenship or a residence permit in Moldova, then you must know the rules of stay in Moldova, and accordingly, file an application for a residence permit or citizenship. This especially applies to citizens of the Russian Federation living in the territory of Transnistria.<\/p>\n

Foreign citizens staying for more than 90 days in the territory of Moldova without Moldovan citizenship and without a residence permit will be denied by state authorities in obtaining any documents in Moldova. The fact is that such persons are considered to be illegally staying in the Republic of Moldova. You will be denied even if, for example, you have already received a birth certificate (marriage certificate, etc.) in Transnistria. In our case, this does not give you the right to obtain Moldovan documents without having Moldovan citizenship or a residence permit. Moreover, even if you are registered with the consulate of the Russian Federation in Moldova, this does not affect your situation in this case in any way.To clarify the legal possibilities of obtaining documents in such cases, please contact us.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We hope this information will be useful to you and that you will obtain Moldovan documents in advance or timely apply for citizenship or a residence permit in Moldova.<\/p>\n
