I have overpaid and still do it at my conveniences with BoA and Citi cards CCs - still possible for the naysayers
You can overpay, but you can't load it. It's Not a cash account no matter how much you try. Hey aren't you the guy that comes here for financial transaction help?

I would suggest getting a bank here.... it takes a bank reference from your home country and a passport then you can wire yourself money. Otherwise the DR government will allow you to take in less then 10000 of your home currency but you cannot leave with more. Either that or pay your CC bills at home and most places allow you to withdraw or pay with them.

I would advise against flying in or out of the USA with more than a few hundred dollars. Especially if you transit thru Atlanta or Charlotte. They are seizing people's money like crazy regardless of where you and your documentation say the cash came from.

Put it in your bank account back home then send it to yourself using a trust worthy company like Remitly.

I don't fly through America but I have been redistributed through Miami once. The Dominican Government allows cash you have to declare it or get a bank here and wire it.

If you are worried about a CC its probably easier to go online and pay a bill and use the atm or they have debits.

Really? Even under $10,000?? How can they rationalize that?

Wondering who has mentioned to "load" a CC?

Its rhetorical genius...

For all purpose it was made clear that the subject was to overpaid the CC, not a single mention of loading, nada, zip, zero

It's called "civil forfeiture" and it's gotten totally out of control. All the police have to do is suspect that the money came from "illicit gains" and they can take your money. Even worse, the onus is then on you to prove how you got.

It gets worse, CBP is now legally able to take away your digital equipment, ie; phones, tablets, laptop, etc, seize it, look at the information in them and use it against you to build a case in a court of law if needs to be, careful with all of those nasty videos and pictures

I think now you're just trying to walk back the fact that you were in need of help with your money movements and came to the boards for help. It's ok. Have a blessed evening sir

I am with Banco Santa Cruz and wire money from Canada.

The ATMs by Super Polo will give up to 20000 there is three but only one of them gives 20000 the other two do 10000 alot of the times they are out of cash so I go early.

They are on the right-hand side of Super Pola in Sosua. Sorry if you are not in this area. Cabarete has some good spots too. I know some of the bankers here if you need phone apps or accounts its not that hard and they are accommodating anybody can message me and I would be happy to help.

Its completely legitimate to wire yourself money here if you have an account. If its over 10000 they might ask questions but I have wired myself money numerous times and love the service. I find the bank in Cabarete more consumer friendly than the one in Sosua.

There's no limit on how much cash you can travel with domestically or internationally. Internationally, you are only required to declare if you have more than $10K. However, with the way civil asset forfeiture laws are being abused at airports and on the highways, it's not a good idea to even be travelling with even several thousand dollars in cash. It not easy to get it back when confiscated.
