Always required
- —A valid passport — most countries require at least six months' validity on entry. Check it: it's the most common snag.
- —The migration e-ticket: filled in online, free, covering arrival and departure. It generates a QR code. It's not a visa — it's a digital migration form.
- —An onward or return ticket.
- —Proof of accommodation.
Depending on where you're from
Many nationalities enter visa-free for tourism — the US, Canada, the EU and much of Latin America usually are on that list. But it varies by nationality and by agreement, so don't go by what worked for someone else.
Where to verify (this is the important part)
- —The official e-ticket: the Dominican migration portal.
- —Requirements by nationality: your local Dominican consulate or the migration portal's visa section.
- —And whatever your airline requires — airlines board you by their own list.
Frequently asked
Is the e-ticket paid?
No. The Dominican migration form is free and filled in directly on the official portal. If someone charges you, it isn't the official site.
Do US or EU citizens need a visa?
Normally not for short tourist stays. Confirm it for your nationality and travel dates — requirements can change.
