About the honorary consulate in Bratislava
The honorary consulate represents Moldova in Slovakia. The ministry’s list gives the office hours as Monday to Friday 09:00–17:00. To check before a visit, call +421 917 944 297 or e-mail office@mdconsulate.sk.
The office is in the capital, Bratislava, about 8 km in a straight line from Bratislava Airport (M. R. Štefánik).
Under Regulation (EU) 2018/1806 (consolidated version of 30 December 2025), citizens of Moldova with a biometric passport do not need a visa for short stays in Slovakia and the rest of the Schengen area (up to 90 days in any 180-day period; Annex II).
Which Moldovan office issues passports and visas?
Passports and other formal consular services for Moldovan citizens are handled by the Moldovan Embassy in Vienna (accredited to Slovakia).
Moldova has no embassy in Slovakia. According to the Diplomatic List of the Slovak Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs (7 October 2026), the mission accredited to Slovakia is the Embassy of Moldova in Vienna. It is headed by Victoria Roșa (ambassador, credentials presented on 4 March 2025).

What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by Moldova and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Moldovan citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
