Carriers & coverage

Which networks you ride in Dominican Republic.

In Dominican Republic your eSIM connects on Claro, Altice and Viva. These are the same physical networks a local would use — not a roaming overlay. Your phone hands off to whichever has the strongest signal where you stand, so you don't choose a carrier and you don't get stuck on a weak one.

Expected performance is 30 – 95 Mbps urban · 58 ms RTT in covered urban areas — the same band the local carrier serves its own subscribers. That is comfortable headroom for video calls, large uploads, and tethering a laptop, not a throttled tourist tier.

The reason this beats roaming is simple math. Default home-carrier roaming in Dominican Republic runs about $20 – 40/GB, billed after your trip with no ceiling. A travel.to plan is a single charge for the data you choose, decided before you travel. Over a normal trip that is an order-of-magnitude difference, and there is no bill waiting when you get home.

Coverage detail: Three carriers per region · auto-failover below signal threshold. Failover is automatic — nothing to toggle by hand.

Setup

How to set up your eSIM in Dominican Republic.

  1. 01

    Buy a plan

    Pick a plan for this country and pay with card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. There is no account to create and no subscription.

  2. 02

    Receive your QR code

    Your eSIM QR code arrives by email seconds after payment. You can install it on any eSIM-capable phone before you leave home.

  3. 03

    Scan it in Settings

    Open your phone's eSIM settings, choose to add an eSIM, and scan the QR code. The profile installs in a couple of taps and stays dormant until you arrive.

  4. 04

    Connect on arrival

    When you land, the eSIM activates automatically on Claro or another partner network — usually before you clear immigration. No manual carrier switch, no kiosk.

Works on any eSIM-capable phone — iPhone XS and newer, recent Pixel and Galaxy, and most modern Android flagships. Check your device, or follow the step-by-step guide for your exact phone: iPhone · Galaxy · Pixel.

About Dominican Republic

Questions people ask.

Yes. travel.to runs in Dominican Republic on Claro, Altice, and Viva — 3 partner networks in total. Your phone connects to whichever is strongest where you are, the same physical towers a local SIM would use, so coverage in Dominican Republic is carrier-grade rather than best-effort roaming.
Dominican Republic runs on solid 4G/LTE-Advanced, with urban speeds around 95 Mbps (30 – 95 Mbps urban · 58 ms RTT). That comfortably covers maps, messaging, calls, and streaming — you will not feel the difference for normal working-trip use.
A lot. Default home-carrier roaming in Dominican Republic runs about $20 – 40 per GB and is billed after the fact. A travel.to plan is a single up-front charge for the data you pick — an order of magnitude cheaper, with no surprise bill.
The Dominican Republic catalog is being finalized. When it goes live you will see a short lineup — a few trip-length windows plus an unlimited option — rather than an overwhelming wall of near-identical SKUs.
For a typical Dominican Republic trip — maps, messaging, calls, some streaming — a mid-size plan is plenty. Heavy streaming or laptop tethering uses more; if you run low you can top up the same eSIM without a new install.
Each Dominican Republic plan is a single up-front charge — no subscription and no metered overage. The exact prices appear on the plan grid above, with tax handled at checkout based on your billing country.
Fast. ICCID assigned at checkout · QR in inbox under 90 seconds. You can install before you leave home; the eSIM stays dormant until it reaches a partner network in Dominican Republic, then activates on its own — usually the moment you land, before you have cleared immigration.
No need. The SIM kiosks in Dominican Republic keep limited hours (Punta Cana PUJ · daytime · Santo Domingo SDQ daytime) and you would queue at them with the rest of your flight, passport in hand. Install the travel.to eSIM before you board and you walk straight past them, already online.
Dominican Republic sits at UTC−4 year-round. Santo Domingo and Punta Cana, no DST — one hour ahead of US East in winter. Resort zones get dense seasonal coverage. The connection holds through local peak hours, so video calls and large transfers stay reliable when you need them.
You stay connected where there is signal. Three carriers per region · auto-failover below signal threshold Your phone switches networks on its own — there is nothing to toggle by hand. Coverage is strongest across cities and major routes in Dominican Republic.
