Why this verdict
Sri Lankan citizens are mapped from Moldova MFA's visa-required list as requiring a Moldovan visa for ordinary short visits. This guidance is intentionally conservative: residence permits, supporting visas, diplomatic/service passports, work, study, airline routing, border checks and transit control can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official source before booking. The MFA page also lists this nationality among states whose nationals generally require an invitation for entry-visa issuance, unless an official invitation-procedure exception applies.
