Q: What is the Dominica Health Questionnaire?

Apply and complete the form at edcard.dominica.gov.dm — or Apply for your Dominica Health Questionnaire now with guided help.

Q: Who needs the Dominica Health Questionnaire?

All non-resident visitors who will clear immigration must submit the questionnaire within the required window. Returning nationals should use the resident option. Transit crew on active duty and diplomatic passport holders are typically exempt. See general travel guidance at Travel.State.Gov .

Q: What happens if I arrive without a valid Dominica Health Questionnaire?

If you arrive without confirmation you may face delays while completing the form at the port of entry, possible additional screening, and missed transfers. Airlines often check the QR at departure — apply before you fly to avoid delays. Start your application before travelling.

Q: Can I edit or correct my application after submission?

Minor errors in submitted answers should be corrected before travel. If you need to change flight or accommodation details after submission, re-submit a corrected questionnaire on the EDCard portal or contact support for guidance. Save the new confirmation and QR code to present at check-in.

Q: Is a departure Dominica Health Questionnaire also required?

No — the online health questionnaire is a pre-arrival health screening requirement only. Departure procedures are handled separately by immigration and customs; check local exit rules on the EDCard portal at edcard.dominica.gov.dm .

Q: Which airports and seaports accept this document?

Present your confirmation and QR code at any Dominica port of entry. The primary international airport is Douglas-Charles Airport (DOM) . International ferry and passenger ports include Roseau and Portsmouth — immigration and customs officials at those ports accept the EDCard confirmation.

Q: Can I apply from my mobile phone?

Yes — the EDCard portal is mobile-friendly and you can complete the questionnaire on your smartphone. Save a screenshot of the QR code offline in case mobile reception is poor on arrival.

Q: How far in advance should I apply?

Submit the questionnaire within 72 hours (3 days) before your scheduled arrival — the official EDCard guidance advises submission no more than three days before travel. We recommend applying 24–72 hours before departure to allow time for corrections. Apply for your form here .

Q: What is the step-by-step application process?

1) Visit edcard.dominica.gov.dm or DoVisa. 2) Enter traveller details, passport and flight information. 3) Submit and receive a QR-code confirmation by email. 4) Save the QR and present it at airline check-in and immigration. Start now for guided help.

Q: Do children need their own Dominica Health Questionnaire?

Yes. Each traveller aged one (1) year and above should have their own submission — a parent or guardian must complete the questionnaire for minors. Keep individual confirmations for each child to present during check-in and at immigration.

What Is the Dominica Health Questionnaire?

The Dominica Health Questionnaire is an official pre-arrival health declaration required by Dominica’s authorities to help manage public-health screening and speed up immigration clearance. Submitted through the government's online ED card portal, the questionnaire collects basic health information and travel details and replaced earlier paper-based arrival health checks to streamline embarkation and disembarkation.

Apply on the official EDCard site at edcard.dominica.gov.dm or use DoVisa for guided completion. After you submit the questionnaire you receive an email confirmation with a QR code — save a screenshot and your confirmation PDF. Airlines and immigration officers commonly scan the QR code at check-in and on arrival to verify compliance.

The Dominica Health Questionnaire is a health-screening declaration, not a visa or entry permit. It must be completed within the required pre-arrival window (see timing below) and helps local health authorities identify travellers who may need additional screening or testing on arrival. It does not guarantee entry — immigration and border officials make final admission decisions at the port of entry.

For full travel guidance see Dominica visa information and the official EDCard portal at edcard.dominica.gov.dm. When you're ready, Apply for your Dominica Health Questionnaire now to get started with guided help and document checks.
