Clearing customs: PMR border post

The paperwork process is transparent and easy. There is no visa required and only a quick, hassle-free registration for longer stays.

As a multi-ethnic country, Pridnestrovie welcomes foreign visitors. No visa is required when entering Pridnestrovie. However, all foreign citizens must register upon arrival in Pridnestrovie. For daytrips the registration is handled right at the border for a cost of less than 50 cents. Stop at the last checkpoint on the border and go to the Pridnestrovian government's Migration office for a little paper which is checked upon exiting the country. For longer stays, registration with the migration office should be handled within 24 hours of your arrival. Registration for foreign citizens who plan to stay in the country for more than one day must be done with either the Migration Office or local police. Your hotel will take care of the registration if required.

In Tiraspol, the Pridnestrovian government's migration office OVIR is located downtown on 2A Kotovskiy St, Tiraspol. Office hours are 9 am - 5 pm weekdays, with a lunch break between noon and 1 pm. For questions, please call the Migration Office at tel (+373 533) 7-90-83. During weekends or outside office hours you may also register at the main Tiraspol Police Station, downtown at 66 Rosa Luxembourg St.
