Spain to Dominican Republic visa requirements

Spanish (ES) ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa to visit the Dominican Republic for tourism. You may enter visa-free for up to 30 days (extendable up to 120 days in-country for a fee). You only need a valid passport, a completed free online E-Ticket, and the tourist card (the US$10 fee is bundled into your airline ticket for air arrivals). Spain is on the Dominican Republic's visa-exempt list, so Spanish ordinary passport holders travel visa-free for tourism. No embassy application or pre-approval (no eVisa/ETA) is required for a short stay. The standard permitted stay is 30 days, which can be extended in-country up to 120 days for a fee through the Dirección General de Migración. The single mandatory pre-arrival step is the free electronic entry/exit form (E-Ticket) at eticket.migracion.gob.do, which generates a QR code that must be shown at airline check-in and to immigration. The tourist card (Tarjeta de Turista, US$10) is included in airfare for air travelers, so air tourists pay nothing extra on arrival; the US$20 departure tax is likewise included in airline tickets. As an exceptional measure running from 1 December 2025 through 31 December 2026, EU citizens including Spaniards may enter on a passport that is valid only for the duration of their stay (the usual six-months-validity rule is waived during this window). The Dominican Republic is NOT in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to this route. Travelers should also carry proof of a return/onward ticket and sufficient funds, which can be requested at the border.
