Dominica / Passports/Visas

The best document for entry into Dominica is a valid passport. It is required by citizens of all countries except citizens of Canada, who are permitted to enter Dominica with an authenticated birth or citizenship certificate accompanied by a valid photo ID such as a driving licence. French nationals may enter using a valid ID card when staying for up to 2 weeks. All American citizens returning home to the US from the Caribbean are now required to show a valid passport. For further information please check with the US Department of State. All visitors need to be in possession of a return ticket.

American, Canadian, British and most Commonwealth country citizens are not required to obtain a visa to visit Dominica for tourist or business travel for stays of up to 21 days. If you plan to visit the island for longer, or for reasons other than tourism or business, you should contact a Dominica consulate or embassy office. Certain nationalities do require a visa. Please contact the nearest Dominica consulate or embassy office for more information.
