Do Moldova citizens need a visa for Lebanon?

Based on GoMate's data verified against official and consular sources, the short-stay rule for an ordinary Moldova passport entering Lebanon is "Embassy visa required". This covers short visits for tourism, business, or transit. Entry requirements can change, so always confirm with the Lebanon embassy before traveling.

The permitted length of stay is determined at the border or set by the visa you obtain. See the requirements above and confirm with the Lebanon embassy before traveling.

Moldova passport holders must apply in advance at the nearest Lebanon embassy or consulate. Submit your passport and a completed application form, allow time for processing, and collect the visa before you travel. Be ready to provide: Pre-arranged visa from Lebanese embassy.

Passport must be valid for at least 3 months. Additional requirements: Pre-arranged visa from Lebanese embassy. Carry proof of onward travel and sufficient funds, as these may be checked at the border.

No. Short-stay entry to Lebanon is intended for tourism, business meetings, and transit — it does not permit paid employment. To work in Lebanon, Moldova citizens need a separate work visa or permit arranged in advance.

Extensions are sometimes possible by applying to the Lebanon immigration authorities before your permitted stay ends. Overstaying can lead to fines, deportation, and may affect future visa applications, so do not rely on it.
