Special Visa Requirements
Dominican Republic Nationals VISA Requirement

U.S. Visa Waiver Requirement
Electronic System for Travel Authorisation(ESTA)
LIAT advises its customers that there are now additional requirements to travel visa-free to the United States. Effective January 20, 2010, nationals of Visa Waiver Program (VWP) countries need an electronic travel authorisation (ESTA) before traveling to the United States. The application requires basic biographical and travel information to be entered. Passengers will also need to fill out a green I-94W form upon arrival in the U.S.
If you are in possession of a passport of an eligible country and you plan to travel to the United States you must have ESTA approval and present proof of same to LIAT at the time of check-in. Failure to comply will result in check-in being denied. A printed copy of the ESTA approval will meet the LIAT requirement.
Nationals of Visa Waiver Program countries will still be eligible to travel without a visa but will have to obtain an approved ESTA prior to travel to the United States. Following is the list of countries which participate in the Visa Waiver Program.
