Why this verdict

Vietnamese citizens are mapped from Moldova MFA's visa-required list as requiring a Moldovan visa for ordinary short visits. This destination-wave matrix record 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.

Conditional rules

Holder of qualifying diplomatic, service or special passport under an applicable treaty Conditional

Moldova MFA footnote [1] concerns diplomatic, service or special passports; this ordinary-passport record remains visa-required.
