you are not allowed to travel from USA to DR without passport, airline will refuse to board you.

I think you could travel with the original birth certificate and another form of ID. The real problem is not leaving NY to DR, it is getting out of DR.

You may encounter problems because you do not have a passport. It will take them longer to verify who you are. Make life easier on yourself and get a passport, it will make things much smoother for you.


As far as leaving on the 4th, it is up to you. I would call the airline and make sure they will allow you to board. On your way back, good luck.

you just need an original birth certificate and 2 forms of ID, that's all, no problems to travel if you are a us citizen!

Default passport

I have heard of people traveling to DR form PR with out a passport and have had no problem.
personally, I would try to get my passport because one time I tried to travel with my expired passport, about 1 month expired and the airline did'nt allow me to travel untill I showed them 2 more pieces of I.D. that I did not have at the time My wife had to take an $80.00 taxi ride to J.F.K. Airport and bring another piece of I.D. Now, geting back to the States wasnt a problem, I guess they didnt notice the expiration date. Thank God.

This subject has come up before and Dolores check with Immigration. They assured her that travelers from the US can enter and leave without a passport.

Anyone that doesn't have a passport should seriously consider getting one. But since you don't have time, don't worry about it.

Tenga buen viaje.

The US Passport service center in Rockefellar Center NY provides sameday passport service. As I remember, all I had to do was show the necessary ID and a plane ticket. You night spend several hours at the center but you will find it well worth the time.
