Practical information

FAQs
-

Citizens from most countries may visit the Dominican Republic as tourists for up to 30 days without a visa. However, you will need to carry the following documentation:
Passport valid for at least six months.
Roundtrip airline ticket.
Address of your accommodation in the country (hotel, apartment, etc.).
Proof of financial solvency sufficient to cover your expenses during your stay.

Do I need travel insurance to visit Punta Cana?
Although taking out a travel insurance policy is not required to visit Punta Cana, we recommend traveling with trip and health insurance that includes all hospitalization and medical repatriation expenses. It is important to keep in mind that the Dominican healthcare system is not equivalent to that of other countries, in terms of equipment and specialists, especially at public hospitals. The private clinics with a level of care comparable to that of other countries may have very high costs.

Is traveling to Punta Cana dangerous for my health?
No, you do not. You do not need any vaccines or special health-related precautions, according to the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare. In the summer the sun is intense, so it is a good idea to wear high SPF sunscreen, a hat, and cool clothing, and hydrate frequently throughout the day.

The official language of the Dominican Republic is Spanish, though in tourist areas most professionals speak English. In certain rural areas you can hear or see words written in Haitian creole.
