Is It Possible to Work in Dominica on a Visit Visa?

No, you cannot legally work in Dominica on a visit (tourist) visa.

You can look for jobs or go to interviews as a visitor. However, you need a valid permit to start working in Dominica.

If you get a job offer while visiting, your employer must apply for a work permit for you. They will do this through the Ministry of National Security and Home Affairs. You might need to go back to your home country while your permit is being processed. This depends on how long you can stay without a visa. For Nigerians, the visa-free stay is 21 days.

2. Can You Get a Resident Permit in Dominica?

Yes, you can get a residence permit in Dominica. However, you must qualify under one of these categories:

Ways to Get a Resident Permit:

• Employment-based Residency:
  If you get a job, you can apply for a work permit. If your permit is approved, you can then apply for temporary residence. This is while you are working in Dominica. After 5 years of continuous legal stay, you can apply for permanent residency.

• Student Residency:
  If you enroll in an approved educational institution in Dominica, you may be granted a temporary student resident permit.

• Spouse or Family Residency:
  If you’re married to a Dominican citizen or resident, you can apply for residency through family reunification.

• Investment Residency (via Citizenship by Investment Program):
  Though this leads directly to citizenship, the CBI program also grants you residence rights. It involves a government fund donation or real estate investment.

Key Things to Note for Visitors:

• You can’t work legally on a visitor visa.

• You can apply for residence, but only through approved routes like employment, study, marriage, or investment.

• Start with a job offer or investment interest if your goal is to stay long-term.
