Verified practical details
You'll need to apply for a visa at a consulate or embassy before travelling. Here are the practical details we've verified:
Authorisation system
E-Ticket
A mandatory electronic form (migration, customs, and health in one) for every traveller regardless of nationality, before entering or leaving the country: unlike Colombia's CheckMig, this one is legally mandatory. It folds in the former "Tourist Card": since 25 April 2018 it's bundled into air tickets issued outside the DR, so most travellers pay nothing extra on arrival; the card's own reference cost, when handled separately, is USD 10 and authorises a single entry.

10 USD
USD 10 is the reference cost of the Tourist Card/E-Ticket when handled independently; for the vast majority of travellers arriving on a commercial flight it's already bundled into the ticket issued outside the DR, so it isn't paid separately.
Processing time
Every traveller fills in the E-Ticket, up to 72 hours before you travel and generates the QR code you show at the airport straight away. It is mandatory and free for every nationality, both entering and leaving, and it rolls the immigration, customs and health declarations into one form.
Required documents
- E-Ticket completed online before travel (migration, customs, and health) at eticket.migracion.gob.do.
- A visa, applied for at the Dominican embassy or consulate nearest to your place of residence or the one with jurisdiction over it. It is not needed for tourism if you hold permanent residence or a valid multiple entry visa from the United States, the Schengen area, Canada or the United Kingdom: under Decree 691-07, a valid passport and the tourist card are enough.
Health insurance
Not mandatory for this destination.

Tourist stay authorised for up to 30 days; exceeding it carries no penal fine or re-entry ban, only an exit fee calculated by length of overstay (see sanciones_overstay).
