KAUFEN

Traveling to Moldova by car is one of the most convenient ways to cross the border. The main highways between the two countries are in good condition, although some sections may be undergoing repair work. For now, drivers should take into account temporary changes in the operation of some checkpoints to plan their trip more efficiently. More details about the changes, alternative routes and border crossing rules are provided below.

Temporary suspension of the operation of the Rososhany-Brychen checkpoint

On November 2, 2024, the Rososhany-Briceni checkpoint on the Ukrainian-Moldovan border will temporarily suspend its operation. According to the State Customs Service of Ukraine, customs control of citizens and vehicle clearance will not be carried out from 09:00 to 21:00.

The reason for the suspension of the checkpoint's operation is the planned work on the power supply network, as reported by the Service for the Restoration and Development of Infrastructure in Chernivtsi region.

Continued repairs at the border bridge

In addition, it should be noted that repairs to the border bridge across the Dniester River at the Mohyliv-Podilskyi - Otach checkpoint continue. The work period has been extended by 14 days - approximately until November 4. During this period, traffic may be partially restricted.

Green card for entering Moldova

The Green Card is a mandatory international motor third party liability insurance policy for entry into Moldova. The policy covers the costs of compensation for damage caused to life, health and property of third parties as a result of an accident in the country.

It is important to note that the insurance becomes effective the day after the policy is issued, so it is recommended to purchase it in advance. The policy can be purchased online on the Visit Ukraine portal with different validity periods - from 15 days to 1 year.

Penalties for not having a Green Card

The absence of a Green Card when crossing the border of Moldova is punishable by a fine of 200 to 2000 euros. The amount of the fine depends on:

● The length of the delay

● Type of vehicle

● The place where the violation was detected
