Spanish is the official language of the Dominican Republic. However, in major tourist destinations such as Santo Domingo and Punta Cana, English is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants, and shops, making it easier for international visitors to communicate.
The official currency of the Dominican Republic is the Dominican peso (DOP). In tourist areas such as Punta Cana, U.S. dollars (USD) are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, and shops. Still, it is advisable to exchange into pesos for local purchases and avoid fluctuations in the exchange rate. Euros (EUR), although not as common, can be exchanged at exchange offices, banks, and international airports. ATMs are available in the main tourist areas, and credit cards are widely accepted.
The Dominican Republic has a tropical climate with warm temperatures throughout the year. The dry season, from December to April, is considered ideal for its low probability of rain, perfect for enjoying its beaches and exploring places such as Santo Domingo. From June to November, the rainy season can bring localized rainfall, although it is usually brief and does not significantly affect the warm weather of tourist areas.
Most tourists only need a valid passport to enter the Dominican Republic. Citizens of the United States, Canada, the European Union, and other countries do not require a visa for tourist stays of up to 30 days. In addition, all travelers must complete a digital entry and exit form, known as an e-Ticket, which is presented upon arrival and departure from the country. It is essential to check the specific requirements according to your nationality before traveling.
The Dominican Republic offers a variety of transportation options. In Santo Domingo and other major cities, services like Uber are available. In tourist destinations such as Punta Cana, private transportation and organized transfers are the most recommended options to move between the airport and hotels. Taxis and intercity buses can also be found for longer distances.
The ideal duration depends on the type of trip. To enjoy the beaches and relax at a resort in Punta Cana, a stay of 5 to 7 days is usually enough. If you want to explore Santo Domingo as well, an 8- to 10-day trip will allow you to enjoy both history and nature.

No specific vaccinations are required to enter the Dominican Republic, although it is recommended to be current on standard vaccinations. If you plan to visit rural areas, consult a doctor about additional vaccinations, such as hepatitis A or B, depending on the itinerary.
