Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your Greek passport needs to be valid for the entire time you're in Dominica. No minimum validity beyond your stay is required by law, but airlines sometimes enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Dominica | Immigration at Douglas-Charles Airport will ask for a return or onward ticket before they stamp you in. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight booking ready — they check this consistently. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Carry a copy of your hotel reservation or a letter from your host in Dominica. Officers rarely ask for it, but having it ready avoids delays if they do. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Have access to at least $100 USD per day of your stay, either in cash, card, or bank statements. Immigration doesn't always check, but they can ask — especially if you're staying the full 180 days. | Recommended |
No visa needed, but plan ahead
You don't need a visa, but you still need a valid passport, return ticket, and accommodation proof. Have these ready to avoid delays at immigration.
Passport validity is critical
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date. If it's close to expiring, renew it before you book anything.
