4 August 2023 WARNING! In the context of the holiday period, ANCOM recommends that users planning trips to the Republic of Moldova check their provider’s tariffs for roaming internet in the neighbouring country, before relying heavily on this service during the trip. Although the vast majority of tariff plans offered by Romanian operators for roaming internet in the Republic of Moldova feature low, competitive tariffs, some customers with older contracts or tariff plans that have not been updated may be exposed to high costs, similar to the standard rates from previous years. Such situations can be avoided by updating the subscription contracts signed before 12 July 2019 or by activating, before the trip, an extra-option with very low internet prices for the Republic of Moldova, such extra-options being applicable for both subscriptions and prepaid cards.
