Persons can enter the Republic of Moldova with motor vehicles registered in Ukraine even if they do not have the Green Card certificate of insurance issued by Ukrainian insurance companies. The condition is to sign internal civil liability insurance contracts with licensed insurers in Moldova within 24 hours. The price of the insurance policy varies depending on the period of validity of the contract and the type of the unit of transport, IPN reports.

The internal civil liability insurance contracts are valid for 15 days to 12 months. The prices vary depending on the period of validity of the contract, category of vehicle, cylinder capacity or weight and on the experience of the driver, said representatives of an insurer. Another insurance company said the prices start from 400 lei and can rise to 4,000 lei.

The National Commission for Financial Markets said the motor vehicles that just cross the Republic of Moldova need to buy border insurance policies, issued by authorized Romanian insurers, on the border with Romania so as to have civil liability insurance coverage in the Eurozone. The given border insurance is valid in all the states of the European Economic Area and in Switzerland and is valid for 30 days. Further information about border insurance is available on the website of the Romanian Bureau of Motor Insurers.

The exact number of Ukrainian motor vehicles that entered the Republic of Moldova since February 24 is not known. The responsible authorities said these data are being systematized and will be presented in the near future.

Moldova and Germany simplify the mutual recognition of official documents

by Alexandru Carasec 22.07.2026

Official documents issued in the Republic of Moldova and Germany may now be used in each other’s countries with only an apostille, without the need for the legalization procedure. The measure enters into force following the Federal Republic of Germany’s withdrawal of the reservation it made in 2007 when the Republic of Moldova acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention, IPN reports.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that the decision was made following steps taken by Deputy Prime Minister Mihai Popsoi, Minister of Foreign Affairs, during his May 18–19 meeting with his German counterpart, Johann David Wadephul.

The ministry emphasizes that the new system will eliminate the need to visit multiple institutions or diplomatic missions to have documents legalized, which will reduce both the time required and the costs incurred by citizens. The simplified procedure will apply to official documents such as birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates, criminal records, academic diplomas, and diploma supplements.

The Hague Convention on the Apostille entered into force for the Republic of Moldova on March 16, 2007. With its implementation in relations with Germany, the Republic of Moldova will benefit from the same simplified procedure for the recognition of official documents as it does with all 130 states and entities that are parties to the convention.

by Milena Macarciuc 22.07.2026

Maritime schools could be opened in Moldova following the full transposition of relevant European legislation. The statement was made by Deputy Prime Minister Vladimir Bolea, Minister of Infrastructure and Regional Development, who noted that there is growing interest in such programs, including from Ukrainian citizens affected by the war, according to IPN.

Vladimir Bolea stated that the new regulations will allow seaman’s books to be issued based on studies completed in the Republic of Moldova at authorized institutions.

The minister told the press that, at present, no ships are sailing under the flag of the Republic of Moldova, but the authorities are working to transpose European legislation and develop the legal framework necessary for the development of this sector.

According to him, the state and the Naval Agency could generate significant revenue both from ships sailing under the Moldovan flag and from institutions that train seafarers.
