Dominican Republic DGM residence routes refreshed

By · Last reviewed:

Dominican Republic route guidance now reflects current DGM service pages for RT-3 work residence, pensionado, rentista, investor, RT-9 temporary residence and RP-1 permanent residence, including current validity, thresholds, fees and processing caveats.

What changed

  • Policy claim 1

    DGM lists RT-3 work residence as a one-year route, with RD$14,000 file deposit, medical fees of RD$6,300 for adults and RD$4,200 for children, and a 90-calendar-day service time.

  • Policy claim 2

    DGM lists US$1,500 monthly foreign pension income for pensionado and US$2,000 monthly foreign income for rentista; the pensionado pages show conflicting 45-business-day and 90-working-day estimates, so the discrepancy is retained for applicant confirmation.

  • Policy claim 3

    The DGM investor service specifies a minimum US$200,000 investment and a permanent card valid for one year initially, then four years; its displayed processing value is internally inconsistent and is flagged for confirmation.

    DGM lists RT-9 temporary residence as valid for one year, with RD$14,000 file deposit and 90 business days; RP-1 requires the first RT-9 card plus four renewals for the ordinary change-of-status route and lists RD$16,800 and 90 business days.
