The Dominican Republic is looking forward to welcoming UK visitors immediately the UK Government gives the green light to international leisure travel.
The country, one of the most popular in the Caribbean for the British Market, will only require a negative PCR test (taken within 72 hours of travel) to be presented on arrival. No vaccination is required, opening the destination up to younger audiences and families, who may not have been fully vaccinated when they take their first trip abroad this year. Hotels and Resorts across the destination have been open to visitors from other markets for many months and have established health and safety protocols in place.
The Dominican Republic is unfolding the most aggressive vaccine campaign in the Caribbean and Central American region and has already vaccinated 700,000 people (6.3 doses per 100 residents)* putting it ahead of many other long haul holiday destinations.
