If you were born outside the Dominican Republic to a Dominican parent, you may be able to claim Dominican citizenship through our remote service — no travel to the Dominican Republic or consulate visits required. This free assessment reviews the family and identity records available, identifies the documents you need, and gives you a personalised cost estimate before you commit to anything.
