Since September 5, 2025, Moldovan citizens have received the long-awaited freedom of movement: it is now possible to visit the UAE without visas and bureaucratic procedures. Thanks to the Memorandum on the mutual abolition of visa requirements signed in Abu Dhabi on August 4, Moldovans can stay in the Emirates up to 90 days in any 180-day period.

This decision was an important step in the development of relations between countries and opens up a whole range of new opportunities for travelers, entrepreneurs and, of course, investors.

What does this mean for Moldovan citizens?

Easy trips to Dubai and other emirates — without long waits and visa costs.

New tourist routes — leisure and shopping in one of the most popular destinations in the world.

Barrier-free business contacts — simplified access to international partners and investment platforms.

Cultural exchange — even more opportunities for communication, education and international relations.

The impact on the real estate market

1. Simplifying investments

Now it is much easier for residents of Moldova to come to the UAE to inspect properties, sign contracts and manage their properties.

2. Strong demand for overseas properties

The EU's experience shows that after visa liberalization, millions of Moldovans began to travel and invest more actively. Over 10 years, they have saved €270 million on visas and made more than 31 million trips. A similar effect is expected in the Emirates.

3. Contrast with the domestic market

In Moldova, housing prices are rising rapidly (+35.4% per year), but the number of transactions is falling sharply — the market is overheated. This is pushing investors to look alternatives abroad, where the value of assets is growing steadily and rents are highly profitable.

Why choose Dubai?

High rental returns — up to 9% per annum.

Tax advantages — no income tax or real estate tax.

Global status — The city attracts millionaires, tourists and international companies.

The infrastructure of the future — Expo City Dubai, new transport projects and the development of smart-city technologies.

The result: open doors to the future

For Moldovan investors, a visa-free regime with the UAE is more than a simplification of travel. This is access to the global center of business and real estate, where capital works more efficiently than in an overheated domestic market.
