- In this video, I will explain how you should go about renting or buying a vehicle (cars, motorbikes, scooters) in the Dominican Republic. Driving rules and regulations, places to shop, do's and don't's of the rental and buying process, and I will give you a few handy contacts. Enjoy!:-)
Renting a car for exploring all of DR is definitely the way to go, however, it is still a good idea to rent a vehicle even if you just want to explore one region, such as Puerto Plata and surrounding towns, Punta Cana, Samaná, or Barahona, as this way you can explore both coastlines, countryside, and hilly areas...

An excellent video, Mr T.. Very useful information.. I can't wait to get out there. Thank you :)
Thanks Ruth!! DR is waiting for you :) Brgds, Mr.T
GREAT VIDEO !!! AND EVERYTHING IS TRUE !!!!!!
Thanks for watching! :-)
Ogando Rentals now charge $50/day for small golf cart rental. That's more than other agencies in Sosua rent compact cars for!! In addition you can't get the cart insured so if any thing happens you're buying a golf cart before you leave D.R. Yikes!
Thanks, good details/ info - yes shop around, ask good questions and see who does the best for you. I find VIP Car rentals and Extreem Car rentals solid - maybe try them - they rent out cars, buggies, ATV's, Motorbikes and scooters.
Brgds, Mr.T
One issue I’ve found in renting in DR, they want to know where you are staying. They will come and dent car and charge a fortune, some will want to hold passport. Don’t rent in no name fly by night place. You will get ripped off.
Great info, will be in punta Cana in a few days. Do you know any trustworthy motorcycle or scooters rental company in punta Cana? Thanks
Sorry, not my backyard, but when you get there, ask a professional staff member of i.e. the hotel, and they should know who to refer you to - Brgds, Mr.T
great video...thank you...i think im gonna come here instead of the Bahamaas...the DR seems a little more down to earth
I am sure you will enjoy it here. Thanks for watching and commenting! :-)
Do you need a bike license to rent the motorcycles or would a normal driving license do
no license needed, just make sure you carry a copy of the Matricula (ownership paper) and Insurance + wear a helmet - now you're good to go!
P.S. Never leave your passport with the rental agency!
@@EducatedTraveler Thanks for the reply appreciate it
Hello, I will be in DR for 3 months, do you suggest me to rent or to buy an used scooter ? My budget is 900usd
Thanks!
Hi Stephane, thanks for your comment. Surely, for a short period of time you would be better renting a scooter. About $20-25 a day, depending on how many days the price can get lower. I recommend a "VIP Car rental" in Sosua.
What do snowbirds do? I can't imagine they buy a car and let it sit while they're back home for half the year, but I feel like it would be pretty expensive to rent a car for 4+ months
Some put cars in storage, and others have a tarp over it at their property. Yes rentals can become expensive.
Does anyone know anything about this?
If I work remotely from DR for a company that is located in Europe but is not registered in DR. Does the company then have to pay any type of fees. ex: employer tax in DR.
"Loose lips, sink ships!" If you want to hire me for consultancy, then just reach out at: info@educatedtraveler.info - cheers! Mr.T
Motorcycle rental is way too much if you are renting long term.
hi good morning . i just purchased a scooter and i need to know how to register it here in santo domingo. i have bought insurance and i have the legal documents from the dealer
Hi Jocelyn!
If you bought it privately, then bring the purchase agreement + the "Matricula" (ownership paper) and your passport to a lawyer, and get him/her to start the process of transferring to your name. However, when you buy it from a dealer, then usually they should arrange the transfer to your name, so you soon receive the Matricula + Placa (no.plate). I hope that helps! Brgds, Mr.T
how far away are these places from the punta Cana?
Puerto Plata (North coast) is about 5-6 hour drive from Punta Cana depending on what road you take.
@@EducatedTraveler I’m back packing there are good buses to take?
For someone moving there... whats the process of buying one as a tourist or can you
Hi Adam, thanks for watching. You don't need to be a resident to buy a vehicle in DR. For more info, feel free to email me, as I provide consultancy service. Brgds, Mr. T
Are 7 year olds required to have a car seat in the Dr?
Hi. No, at 7 daddy already has them on their lap pulling the steering wheel :)
Why are the cars cheaper than the bikes out there
Curious - what gave you that impression?
How and where or which insurance company can I buy the Casa Del Conductor?
Thanks!
Any car insurance company will sell you "Casa del conductor" if you request it.
How about renting a bicycle?
Hey! Thanks for asking... Frankly speaking, I haven't come across a bicycle rental place yet :)
Mr T....can you tell me if there is a current curfew being observed in the DR?
No observing, it's a happening thing! Now the tyrants are letting businesses be open till 11pm (mon-Fri) and 9pm (weekends) - it's all about blackmailing the masses to take the kill jab!!
@@EducatedTraveler there trying there hardest to enforce there plan-demic skeemz and kill gates wanna depopulate the planet as fast as possible with that poison and people in Dominican republic and in Puerto plata are taking it without question .glad to know you know what's going on stay safe and I want to also know do you help with purchasing land much thanks bro
How much is the actual cost to rent a car with insurance for a week?
from $35 - $55 daily rate depending on the size / type of car - now time that by 7 days
My Toyota Tacoma 2008 a read not more de 5 years used is true and six cilíndrelo 4litter you can’t not ship is true let me now next year a want to moved but a want to take my truck whit me thanks
Hello Pedro and thanks for watching and commenting! Unfortunately, you can not bring vehicles that are older than 5 years into DR. You would be better buying a similar vehicle here.
