What the Serbia visa rules mean for Moldova travellers

Moldova citizens can enter Serbia without a visa and stay for up to 90 days. You only need a valid Moldova passport at the border; immigration officers may still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay. The 90-day limit usually counts calendar days from your arrival, so book your return flight inside that window.
