What is the Dominican Republic eticket?
The Dominican Republic eTicket is the digital form required by multiple institutions to enter or leave the Dominican Republic. It combines the Traveler’s Health Affidavit, Customs Declaration, and International Embarkations in just one single document. (It does not replace a visa.)
Who needs the Dominican Republic e-ticket?
Anyone who wants to enter or leave the Dominican Republic has to complete it, whether they’re a national or a visitor. Consequently, all tourists are obliged to apply for the Dominican Republic eTicket to enter and exit the country legally and safely.

Applying in advance is a great way to reduce travel stress and stay on top of your plans.
How long is the Dominican Republic eTicket valid for?
The e Ticket is a single entry document and is only valid on entry to the Dominican Republic, so you must apply for one each time you travel to the country.

What documents will I need to apply for the e Ticket?

Questions
Is there is a time limit for the QR code?
Sarah J, USA | July 6, 2024
I'm flying out from Miami to Santo Domingo in a few weeks, and I filled out the Dominican Republic eTicket way back in June when I booked my ticket. I'm worried that the QR code might expire since it's been a while. I heard something about needing to do it within 72 hours of traveling. Is this true, or am I all set with the one I have?
Martin, iVisa | July 8, 2024
Before, the earliest you could apply for your eTicket was 72 hours before your travel date. This regulation has since changed; the eTicket can be filled out as soon as you have your flight information, even months in advance. There's no specified expiration time for the QR code once it has been generated. So you’re good to go with the QR code you have, as long as your details and the travel dates you provided remain unchanged.
What if I don't have a flight number?
Glen C, Canada | July 11, 2024
We’re traveling to the DR and have started the eTicket process. We’re flying into Punta Canta. We are however leaving the country via a cruise ship from La Romana. I can’t see any mention of cruise ships on the form and we don’t have a departure flight number. We want to get our departure QR codes at the same time as our entry codes. What should we put in that field on the form?
Martin, iVisa | July 12, 2024
Because you’re leaving the Dominican Republic via a cruise ship, you don’t need an eTicket for your departure. Passengers arriving or leaving on private flights, non-commercial vessels, ferries, cruise ships, etc., do not need to fill out an eTicket.
