I heard that an autopsy is mandatory for foreigners. Is this true and if so how much and who pays for it. Does this apply for residence or just tourist?

I hope this only applies if they are dead first!!!

It applies to anyone NOT a citizen of the DR. Who pays - relatives or friends of the deceased - or whoever has money. How much - not sure.

I think you will find that it is not just a rule of this country but is that infamous Diplomatic Protocol and applies all over the world. Any person who dies and who is not a national of that country has to have an autopsy.

I have told my nearest and dearest to just dig a hole in the garden and bung me in it. Tell no one. Much cheaper.
