Description

Swiss citizens can visit Dominica visa-free for up to 90 days, making it one of the easiest Caribbean destinations to access. While no visa is required for short visits, travelers must still comply with entry conditions, health rules, and customs regulations. Our Travel Authorisation Dominica service ensures that Swiss travelers are fully prepared before departure, avoiding any last-minute complications.

Entry documents:

A valid Swiss passport with at least six months’ validity beyond the intended stay
Proof of onward or return travel (airlines often enforce this at check-in)
Proof of sufficient funds and accommodation (hotel booking or host invitation)
We recommend carrying both digital and printed copies of these documents, as immigration or airline staff may request them

Health and insurance requirements:

No mandatory vaccinations are required unless arriving from or transiting through a yellow fever risk country, in which case proof of vaccination is mandatory
COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted, but travelers should check for last-minute changes before departure
Comprehensive travel insurance covering medical expenses, hospitalization, and repatriation is strongly recommended, as medical facilities in Dominica are limited compared to larger nations

Customs and border rules:

Duty-free allowances apply for alcohol, tobacco, and personal goods; items above these limits must be declared
Cash over US $10,000 (or equivalent) must be declared at entry or exit
Dominica has strict biosecurity rules to protect its agriculture; fresh food, plants, and animal products must be declared and may be confiscated

Stay limits and longer visits:
Swiss citizens can stay in Dominica visa-free for up to 90 days per visit. For longer stays, travelers must apply for an extension or a residence permit through Dominican immigration authorities.

Overstaying may result in fines, penalties, or difficulties when leaving or re-entering.

Dominica, known as the “Nature Island,” offers Swiss travelers volcanic peaks, hot springs, waterfalls, and pristine rainforests. By securing your Travel Authorisation Dominica with us, you benefit from expert guidance, document checks, and reliable support to make your trip safe and stress-free.
