Bring screenshots and printed copies of Ticket Portal QR codes and Passport

Before boarding your flight to the Dominican Republic

As of April 1, 2021, all passengers entering and departing are required to fill out digital forms through the Electronic Ticket Portal before their arrival. You will need to fill out a form for arrival and another form for departure, so the system will generate two QR codes. If you need to make a change to the form, you must fill it out again. The airport authorities will scan the codes when you go through Customs.
