Medical Test for visa

joseanna

Hi Guys,

I need to do my cedula or temporary residence permit and was wondering if I need to do my medical in a specific hospital? Also, what tests do I need to provide?

Thanks in advance,
Jose

You dont do that part until you FILE your paperwork, then they give you directions of exactly where to go for your tests.

I'm a born abroad US Citizen. I was born in the capital but due to my father already being a naturalize US citizen he register me with the USA consulate in Santo Domingo. Does this mean I have dual citizenship, if I decide to move over there do I need to go through the immigration process as those who weren't born over there?

Joseanna; Unless things have changed again recently, you have to apply for your residency in your home country or the nearest Dominican Consulate\embassy before coming to the DR.

Please correct me if I'm wrong people...

There is a thread about the entire process. Do a search.

Knight do  you have a DR birth certificate.  If so then yes you would have dual citizenship, but there may be some paperwork to be done
