جمهورية الدومينيكان: ما يجب معرفته قبل السفر
الأهم
- Complete the free official E-Ticket for arrival and departure at eticket.migracion.gob.do before airline check-in. The tourism ministry says it can be completed once flight details are known, even months ahead.
- Visa-free tourist stays are 30 days; longer stays (up to 120 days) need a paid extension, usually settled at departure.
- Ignore lookalike E-Ticket sites that charge a fee — the official form is free.
- Don't drink tap water; use bottled.
- Restaurant bills include 18% tax plus a legal 10% service charge; an extra tip for good service is customary.
