Do not confuse it with another Moldova document

Moldova does not use one frame for everything. This page is about visa — 35 × 45 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.

04What we fix

What we fix for free, and what AI fixes

Fixed for free

  • Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain light background without textures or noticeable gradients.
  • Head tilt. Straightened if the head leans slightly to one side.
  • Frame. Exactly 35 × 45 mm, by the document’s rules.
  • A light shadow on one side of the face. Gently brightened.
  • File and print sheet. A file to the document’s rules and a 10 × 15 or A4 sheet to print.

What can't be fixed for free, AI correction fixes

  • Hard shadows and uneven light on the face.
  • A smile, raised brows or a half-open mouth. Cropping keeps the face it was given.
  • Too few pixels. If the original is smaller than 413 × 531 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
  • Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.

06Good to know

Moldova-specific things to know

  • The Moldovan visa lists give the photograph as «recent, mat, colour, 35 mm × 45 mm» — the matte finish is part of the line.
  • The same photograph line appears for every visa type, from the airport transit visa to the long-stay visas.
  • The page names no head size, background colour or expression, so those settings are the generic ones.
