What is the Dominican Republic Electronic Ticket?
The Electronic Ticket, or e-Ticket, is a mandatory requirement that everyone must fulfill when they fly to and from the Dominican Republic. It is a digital form that provides the government with all the important information they need about each passenger, including personal and trip details. This will ensure that your immigration clearance process is fast and hassle-free.
Since its implementation, the e-Ticket has replaced the previous International Boarding and Disembarkation Card, Customs Declaration Form and Traveler's Health Affidavit.
Thankfully, with Visagov you have the advantage of processing both your entry and exit e-Ticket all together, greatly reducing the amount of bureaucracy and time needed before your trip.

What information is required in the Electronic Ticket?
You can submit one application for all the passengers in your group. In the form, you will be asked to provide information of the following topics for each traveler:
- Personal: full name, date of birth, nationality, civil status, etc.
- Passport: number, expiration and issuance date, etc.
- Trip: name of the airline, flight number, etc. You will need to provide this information for both flights.
- Residence: address and country of your permanent residence, and information about the accommodation you will stay in.
Difference between the Dominican Republic Electronic Ticket and a visa
The e-Ticket does not replace the visa, it is a completely different document. If your nationality is required to present a visa to be granted entry into the Dominican Republic, you will need both a visa and an Electronic Ticket.
Another key difference relates to who needs a visa versus an e-Ticket: many nationalities are exempt from needing a visa, but all travelers have to submit a Dominican Republic Electronic Ticket before flying to and from the country.
