Venezuelan embassy opens visas in the Dominican Republic

The office of the Venezuelan Embassy in the Dominican Republic activated the option of requesting visa appointments for foreigners through its web portal. This is to speed up the response times of the entire consular process.

The appointment platform has the requirements for each type of visa and will operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The user will be able to select the day and time according to the availability to go to the headquarters, said the embassy through a statement.

The digitalization of this process will allow foreigners wishing to enter Venezuela to schedule their visa appointment from their cell phone, tablet or any other electronic device with Internet access.
