The Migration Agency (DGM) has announced that from 30 November 2017, Dominican citizens, naturalized abroad will not have to have a second inspection in the different airports and ports, as their passports will be unblocked when they go through the immigration checks at departure. This ruling also applies to those foreigners who have legal status in the Dominican Republic, as well as members of the diplomatic corps in the country.
In a press release the DGM said that persons in the above categories should register in the DGM offices located in the International Las Americas airport and the Cibao International airport.
In order to do this, those Dominicans naturalized abroad should present their passport and identity card (cedula). Foreigners living legally in the country should present their identity document showing their immigration status.
This is one of the measures ordered by the Director General of the DGM, Lieutenant General Máximo William Muñoz Delgado, to speed up the Migration services during the Christmas period, a peak travel time.
