Chisinau - Post Report Question and Answers

Are qualified veterinarians and/or good kennel services available? Do animals need to be quarantined upon entry to the country? Are there other considerations regarding pets that are particular to this country?

Lots of expats with dogs and cats. No quarantine requirements but get your shots and have your documentation ready. Bringing dogs in to Moldova by air can be tricky: one airline just doesn't do it, another only with cabin-sized dogs. Check with airlines re: pet travel in advance. There are lots of vets but the quality varies wildly, so ask around. - Apr 2019


No. But you do need to have a recent rabies certificate, and be sure to notify the airport that you are arriving with a pet so that they can have the local vet on hand. The incoming fee is $5. - Aug 2011
