Summary
Moldova can grant temporary residence to foreign investors who hold qualifying ownership in a Moldovan legal entity. This is a business and investment residence route, not a passive citizenship-by-investment program.
The key fit question is whether the user is willing to invest through a Moldovan company and maintain the ownership and documentation needed for the residence right.
Eligibility
- Foreign investor in a Moldovan legal entity.
- Qualifying shares or equity interests under Moldova's investment residence rules.
- Proof that the investment and company structure meet the legal requirements.
- Housing, identity, and residence documents required by the migration authority.
- Ongoing compliance with the rules for the type of temporary residence granted.
What This Route Allows
This route can allow you to live in Moldova through the qualifying investment, business, or self-employment basis described above. The proof package should be concrete before filing: accepted investment or business activity, lawful source-of-funds records, corporate, property, or bank documents where relevant, background checks, and the government forms for this pathway.
What This Route Is Not
This is not a guaranteed approval just because money is available. Investment routes usually require due diligence, source-of-funds proof, and careful review of the exact investment rules.
Next Steps
- Confirm the intended company structure with a Moldovan professional.
- Register or invest in the Moldovan legal entity.
- Gather company, ownership, investment, housing, and identity documents.
- Apply for temporary residence through Moldova's migration process.
- Keep corporate and investment records current.
