Still $10

for the tourist card. There is a $20 exit fee, but the regular commercial airlines include it in the round trip ticket price. I believe charter travelers need to pay it.

I believe there is a new entry/exit fee at the airport now of US$2.50 , make sure you have exact change cuz they won't provide any.Not sure when it comes into affect though, so thats another US$5.00 (in total ) on top of the $10 for the tourist visa and the $20 departure.

The new $5US fee doesn't start until November and AFAIK no one knows how it will be collected. Imagine if they start accepting US quarters - what a mess.

We'll have to see how and where this new charge is to be applied and/or collected.

When we left DR in July, we were told that the exit visa was going up to US$25, probably in August. I think it is already US$25 if you stay more than 15 nights.

In addition to the $10 tourist card (purchased when you enter the country), and the $20 exit fee (that's usually included in the ticket), and the proposed $5 fee (not sure when or how they will be collecting it), there's a fee for staying more than 14 days:

15 days to 3 months: RD$300
3 months to 9 months: RD$500
9 months to 12 months: RD$2000
1 year to 1-1/2 years: RD$3500
1-1/2 year to 2 years: RD$4500
2 years to 2-1/2 years: RD$6000
2-1/2 years to 3 years: RD$8000
3 years - 5 years:RD$12,000
More than 5 years: RD$15,000

If and when they add the additional $2.50, my travel agent is sure it will simply be added to the price of the ticket, as is the $20 currently included on most airfares.

The Tourist Card is a seperate fee, much like a Visa.
