Dominican Republic: Passport Extension Process Implemented

The government of the Dominican Republic has begun issuing passport extension stamps for nationals applying to renew their passport in the Dominican Republic. This process was implemented since new passports are currently delayed due to a shortage of materials. The stamped passport will be valid for one year from the date of stamping. Affected individuals seeking to travel or conduct any immigration process should check with the specific airline and contact their immigration professional. Furthermore, nationals applying for initial passports should expect delays in the next few months until the resolution of this issue.
