Processing Times and Return of Documents

Home Página Inicial | U.S. Citizen Services | Child and Family Matters | Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA) | Processing Times and Return of Documents

A consular officer will review your documents and interview you to determine whether your child qualifies for a Report of Birth. If you are properly prepared and your child qualifies, the officer may be able to approve the Report of Birth and passport application the same day.

You will be asked to pay a fee at the Domex office on our premises for the delivery of the Report of Birth and passport. These are usually prepared and sent to you within one month of your interview.

The Domex fees are as follows:

U.S. $12.00 for the city of Santo Domingo
U.S. $16.00 for other places in the Dominican Republic
