Apply for your Dominican Republic eTicket online

Yes. The eTicket is a mandatory entry and exit requirement for all travelers, regardless of whether they require a visa, hold a residency card, or are Dominican citizens. The eTicket is free. If you need help filling it out, want to skip government glitches, or want to benefit from an extra review to avoid errors, iVisa can assist for an additional fee.

Once your form is processed, you will receive a confirmation email containing a QR code. You should save this code on your smartphone or print it out. You will need to scan this code both at check-in with your airline and at the immigration desk upon arrival. You can also find your confirmation and QR code in your iVisa dashboard if applied through us.

Yes. The Dominican Republic requires an eTicket for both entry and exit. When you are ready to fly home, you must generate a new eTicket for your departure. If you apply through iVisa, we can assist you with both forms to ensure a smooth round trip.

The Arrival Card itself is not a stay permit; it is a declaration. Your allowed duration of stay is determined by the type of visa you hold or the specific visa-free policy applied to your nationality at the border.

No. The eTicket is a travel authorization and customs declaration. It does not replace a visa. If your nationality requires a tourist visa to enter the Dominican Republic, you must apply for that separately - so you'll need both documents to enter the country.

The form can be completed up to 72 hours before your flight. However, with iVisa, you can submit your details at any time; we will hold your application and submit it at the optimal window to ensure the QR code is valid for your specific travel dates.

Yes, every traveler must have an eTicket. However, for families or groups traveling together, you can complete a single application form that includes all members of the household. iVisa's "Add another person" feature makes this process simple for families.

Because the eTicket is a combined Immigration, Customs, and Health form, the requirements are based on whether you pass through the Dominican border. If you have a connecting flight and your bags are checked through to your final destination, and you do not pass through immigration/customs, you generally do not need an eTicket. You will stay in the transit lounge and proceed directly to your next gate. Even if you don't legally need it for transit, check with your airline. Some carriers have strict internal policies and may ask to see a QR code before they let you board your first flight if their system shows the Dominican Republic as a destination point.

No. The eTicket is for single entry only. A new registration must be submitted every time you enter or exit the Dominican Republic.
