Yes. In Moldova, you need to pay for the vignette the entire time your vehicle is in the country, whether you're driving on public roads or not.

All foreign-registered vehicles transiting through or visiting Moldova must have a valid vignette.

You can purchase a vignette for: 7 days, 15 days, 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, or 12 months. The vignette begins at 00:00 on your selected start date and expires at 24:00 on the final day.

Prices for cars (in EUR, converted to MDL at the official daily rate): • 7 days: €4 • 15 days: €8 • 30 days: €16 • 90 days: €45 • 180 days: €85 Staying over 180 days? €180 per additional 180-day period.

You only need: • Your vehicle registration number (license plate number) • Your country of registration • A valid payment card (or Apple Pay / Google Pay) You don't need the VIN code, registration certificate, or any other documents. Just your license plate number is enough.

Your vehicle registration number is the number on your license plates. That's the only identifier needed to buy the Moldova vignette. Examples of accepted formats: • Romania: B 123 ABC • Ukraine: AA 1234 BB • Bulgaria: CB 1234 AB Don't confuse it with the VIN code (Vehicle Identification Number). The VIN is a 17-character number stamped on the vehicle body and is NOT required for the vignette.

No need to print or stick anything on your windshield. Everything is digital and linked to your vehicle registration number.

For cars (M1): You need a valid vignette the entire time the vehicle is in Moldova, even if it's parked.
