There was an incident two weeks ago in which the immigration computer system went down causing long lines and people missing their flights.
It was in the news
Systems are back up and running.

There is a big sign saying that you have to pay by card. But I witnessed 3 people paying by cash. So the answer is that nobody knows. Maybe you will be allowed to pay cash, maybe they will insist on a card. All very Dominican.
Nine days ago I paid the exit fee (yes that's what the agent called it) at the cashier where there is pasted down sticker of logos of CC right in front of you. I paid in cash. I'm not surprised windy didn't know that since he "hates going to SD" and really doesn't stray very far from his abode.
Windy, sleep tight tonight as immigrations has it under control.

Yep, Very Dominican.
Or a month?
God no... Just a a thread that no longer would have existed if the replies didn't keep coming. I thought it might have been over paper versus plastic, but it turned out people can still use paper and the long gone issue was because of a computer problem long since resolved.
I do need help on "logi"...
No surprise to me that any regulation isn't enforced. After all the immigration laws not being enforced are the reason people have to pay money for illegally overstaying a tourist card. An extra legal workaround instead of some legal method like a Snowbird Visa. God forbid people should take the path of legal residency instead. Legal residency is just too hard for them.,,
You guys should give La Isabela airport a try. Best airport in the region to be honest. I flew in from Cuba and the whole landing to immigration to exit took less than 30 minutes. No time wasted and no BS.
It's way smaller than SDQ but also less hectic. Just a smooth experience.

We have definitely identified the inside-out underwear users in this thread
Seems like a great option. I found their website, and it shows a few arrivals and departures today, including American Airlines and Jet Blue to/from Miami, However, neither of those airline websites shows anything for this airport. Any idea why?
La Isabella is mostly used for regional flights and private jets. Check flightradar24 for the real arrivals and departures.
I respectfully disagree with all all you state in this post. Then again, I disagree with most of the positions you take. That's just the way it is.
You cannot disagree with facts, johne. I stated facts. Anyone that stays over 30 days on a tourist card is an illegal alien. That is a fact.
Phil Collins hears ya Windy!
Got out of bed, wasn't feeling too good
With my wallet and my passport, a new pair of shoes
The sun is shining, so I head for the park
With a bottle of Tequila, and a new pack of cigarettes
I got a cousin and she got a friend
Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help
At his apartment I knocked on the door
He wouldn't come out until he got paid
Now don't tell anybody what I wanna do
If they find out, you know that they'll never let me through
'Cause it's no fun being an illegal alien
No, it's no fun being an illegal alien
Down at the office, had to fill out the forms
A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose
Up to the counter to see what they think
They said 'It doesn't count man, it ain't written in ink'
I don't trust anybody, least not around here, 'cause
It's no fun being an illegal alien, I tell ya
It's no fun being an illegal alien, no, no, no, no, no
It's no fun being an illegal alien, I mean it when I tell ya that
It's no fun being an illegal alien
An illegal alien, okay
Consideration for your fellow man
Would not hurt anybody, it sure fits in with my plan
Over the border, there lies the promised land
Where everything comes easy, you just hold out your hand
