    You did fill the country field first? After that a pop-up window should be accessible to search for your town. Even my fly-speck village appeared in the database after typing the first three letters of its name

    Chat with an immigration officer about tourist visas and overstaying

    Thanks to those who replied to my questions. It seems nothing has changed from my previous visits to my knowledge. Except that the level of insurance has gone up to 10Mio DR$.

    Chat with an immigration officer about tourist visas and overstaying

    As I have been driving in the DR since 2003 (roughly 25K miles; only 2 minor scrapes - both not my fault), this is interesting for me. Can I ask a few questions pls: 1. Since when has this changed? 2. Also are you saying they will let you go (as opposed to lock you up) when you show sufficient...

    E-Ticket (Can't enter the DR without this)

    I was told by the airline (Tui) that unless I had an E-ticket we would be denied boarding at Brussel airport. So not denied because I had an e-ticket but told I would be denied if I didn't have one.

    It is true that we were not asked for the QR-code on the way out. But we were asked to show it (and it was scanned) on the way in. This was at SDQ. Of course my experience is only anecdotical and, like many rules in the DR, the e-ticket might not be enforced. Either way, I just posted to share...

    The family went through customs in SDQ yesterday with the E-ticket (a QR-code) on the phone of my wife. They presented the QR-code when asked and were waved through after that. The blue immigration forms (which were also already prepared) were not necessary. It was also not necessary to...
