There some risk to your security in Transnistria (northeast Moldova) due to the unstable and unpredictable security situation and we advise caution. The region is not under Moldovan government control and is seeking independence. We recommend you monitor local events closely to keep informed of the security situation and adhere to any restrictions and instructions issued by the Transnistrian authorities.
Protests and demonstrations occur occasionally in Moldova and have the potential to turn violent. We recommend you avoid such situations.
New Zealanders travelling or resident in Moldova should have comprehensive travel or medical insurance policies in place that include provision for medical evacuation by air.
New Zealanders travelling or resident in Moldova are encouraged to register their details with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
