Dominican Republic in brief

The Dominican Republic is built around a resort economy: direct flights to North America and Europe, and the country's busiest airport is in Punta Cana, not the capital. Residence by investment, pension or rentier income is granted directly in permanent status, bypassing the five-year temporary-residence step required for other grounds; two years then remain before citizenship. Dual citizenship is permitted by the constitution, with no requirement to renounce the previous one. The entire territory lies in the tropical-cyclone zone (season June–November, the maximum risk score on the INFORM scale) and in a seismically active part of the Caribbean basin.
