Permits entry to carry out humanitarian activities or work within recognized religious organizations on the territory of Moldova.
The Long-Stay Religious and Humanitarian Activities Visa (Type D/RU) is a specialized category created to facilitate the entry of foreign nationals who contribute to the social and spiritual fabric of Moldova. Regulated under national migration legislation, this visa addresses the need for religious organizations and humanitarian NGOs to bring in international personnel to carry out specific, non-profit missions. It provides a formal framework for volunteers, missionaries, and religious workers to operate legally within the country's recognized cults and humanitarian sectors for extended periods.
This visa is intended for individuals affiliated with officially recognized religious denominations or registered humanitarian organizations operating in Moldova. It is perfect for missionaries, religious leaders, and aid workers who have a formal invitation and a volunteer or collaboration contract from a local entity. The visa is distinctive because it requires proof of institutional sponsorship and specific documentation from the inviting organization, ensuring that the applicant's activities align with Moldovan law and the public interest.
