Hello all, I'm in my mid 20s so not retiring anytime soon. I plan to move to the DR soon and have questions about the residency process. I have a friend who is a retiree, so I believe the process was a little different for him, but he applied for residency with just a tourist card. I've been told that I need to have a visa like a business or residency visa first. But if I can skip the visa and just apply for residency that would be a lot easier.
I plan to stay in the DR indefinitely and want the quickest process to get residency. I know I need to apply for temporary residency for a few years and that's fine. So my main question is: can I arrive in the DR without a return ticket, buy a tourist card, then apply for residency there? Can I extend my tourist card if necessary?
Any help would be great!
