  • Dominican Republic ↗Check entry rules for your passport on official Dominican government sources, including the online e-Ticket form for arrival and departure.
  • Dominican Republic ↗The land border with Haiti is not a tourist route: do not plan overland travel into Haiti.
  • Dominican Republic ↗Avoid driving at night outside cities: unlit roads, motorbikes without lights and animals make it the main risk.
  • Santo Domingo area ↗After dark, take an app or hotel car door to door, including inside the Zona Colonial's outer streets.
  • Santo Domingo ↗Zona Colonial streets are narrow, cobbled and often blocked by parked cars: large suitcases go from the car to the hotel door, never on a walk.
  • Santo Domingo ↗After dark, use an app car or a hotel-booked taxi door to door, including between the Zona Colonial and the Malecón.
  • Santo Domingo ↗Bag and phone snatching from motorbikes happens in the city: keep phones and bags on the side away from the road.
