Hi,

My husband and I need to obtain criminal background check from the Dominican Republic. Does anyone know how to obtain one? We have lived here almost a year now and the residency is still in process. Therefore, we are now still on tourist card. So, I dont even know if we can obtain the background check on tourist card.
Can anyone please help?

Thanks a bunch.

You need to provide these from your home country if I am correct!

Actually I think the new regulations require one from your home country and one from here.
Unless you are fluent in Spanish and have lots of time to kill I would use a lawyer to get this done

Hi:

You will need a criminal background check from your home country and the province or state you lived in. This is not going to be easy getting that here. You will probably have to hire a lawyer to get the process done. It has become more complicated than people realize.

Just as a side tip, the criminal background check you have to get from your home country has to be less than 3 months since issue.
