Dominican Republic Entry Requirements: What to Know

Before you travel to the Dominican Republic

Entry rules depend on your nationality, travel document and purpose of travel. Check the latest instructions from official Dominican authorities and your airline before departure.

Passport and travel documents

• Carry a valid passport for your trip and check the validity rules that apply to your nationality.
• Keep a copy of your passport and travel bookings stored securely.
• If you are not a U.S. citizen or resident, check whether you need a visa or additional documents.

Complete the Dominican Republic e-Ticket

Travelers generally need to complete the official electronic entry and exit form (e-Ticket). Use the official government portal, complete the required information, and save the QR code to show when requested. Avoid unofficial sites that charge for the form.

Return ticket and accommodation

Airlines or immigration officers may ask for evidence of onward or return travel, accommodation details, or the purpose of your visit. Keep these details accessible.

Travel with children

If a child is traveling with one parent or another adult, check the applicable airline and official requirements in advance. Documentation rules can differ by situation.

Health and travel insurance

Review current health guidance and consider travel insurance that covers medical care, trip interruptions and activities you plan to do.

Important: Rules can change and vary by traveler. Confirm the requirements for your nationality with official sources before booking or flying.
