Travelling with a pet from Moldova: the pet travel certificate

To take a pet across the Moldovan border for a holiday or a move abroad, you need a travel certificate from the National Food Safety Agency (ANSA). It is issued on the day you apply, when your documents are in order.

Good to know

  • Who this is for: owners who take a dog, cat or other pet out of Moldova for non-commercial reasons.
  • The certificate is for leaving Moldova. The country you travel to has its own entry rules.

Steps, in order
