Completing the tourist immigration card online before travel to the DR

Hi Forum, it has been a couple of years since we have been able to get back to the DR. We have a place in Sosua Ocean Village and I am trying to complete the online form. It asks what province, what municipality and section where you are staying. It provides drop down menus for each section. Puerto Plata is an option for the province, but the other two areas have drop downs that say select option, but when you click on it, there are no options listed. I have tried many city and section names all around Puerto Plata, but it does not allow any to be manually entered and it will not allow me to continue further in the form since these are required fields. Somehow I was able to get through these in the past, but not now. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I put down Puerta Plata or Sousua

just put a hotel that the name is already in the app

Once you select Puerto Plata as the province then you should have other options.


Sometimes what appears is dependent on the browser you are using. Many many govt apps here work better using Explorer rather than others!  The govt doesn't pay their IT professionals very well so they don't have the best talent! 


My advice - just select whatever appears in the drop downs after choosing the correct province.

Sosua did not work for me

Thanks for the suggestion although nothing appeared in the Options drop down menu when I clicked on it, but then again I was also saying that I was staying in our own house. I tried Sosua Ocean Village, Casa Linda, Seahorse Ranch and none of those worked.

Thanks Planner. I may have to try another browser since nothing appears ion the drop down menu, in fact there is no drop down menu for either Municipality or section, when using Brave as my browser.
