Never been there - but I have been to Kyiv, Donetsk, Mariupol, Simpferopol AND Chisinau (the topic of this thread) with never the slightest problem bringing a laptop in or out. Never declared it in any of these places and it was never called into question (ie after an xray check of my baggage).
JinUK I did not have a problem taking in my laptop to Dnepropetrovsk. In fact I have not had any problems anywhere I have taken it. I think it was easier than it was here in the US. I did not even had to take it out of my case for their screening. I had more of a problem with the hotel people that guarded the stairs to the rooms. Any woman that went up they were always asking questions, to where the woman I went to see just stayed in the lobby when I had to go to my room for something.
