For Ukrainians from Moldova to Bulgaria: route and documents

A large share of our passengers are Ukrainian citizens living in Moldova. They travel to Bulgaria to family, their own homes, on business or on holiday. Here is what we're asked most often.

Route

We drive from Chisinau to southern Moldova, enter Romania via Giurgiulesti, and from there continue to Bulgaria. The route doesn't enter Ukrainian territory either way. The map is on the page without entering Ukraine.

Documents

Bring a valid international passport. If you have a temporary protection document in an EU country, a residence permit or an EU passport, bring those too: the checks go faster and without extra questions.

A Ukrainian internal passport or ID card is not accepted for ordinary entry into Romania, and neither is an expired international passport. Without a passport, only people who ask for protection (asylum) at the border are let in — that is a separate procedure. Children do not need a passport, but bring a birth certificate.

Rules change, so check them before you travel on the website of the Romanian Border Police. We cannot guarantee entry.

At the border

There are eight people in the minibus, so the checks go much faster than on a bus. Citizens of non-EU countries are fingerprinted and photographed — there's a separate article about this.

How to book

Message us on WhatsApp, Viber or Telegram: from where, to where, date and phone. No prepayment needed; you pay the driver 80 € at boarding — in cash in lei, euros or dollars.
