## Evidence timeline

- **Current official route — Dominican ordinary passports: Nicaragua tourism and business visa waiver** (Visa-free)
  The live Dominican MFA treaty register records the Nicaragua agreement as in force, and its attached reciprocal note expressly exempts Dominican valid-travel-document holders for short tourism or business travel.
  - The linked note limits the exemption to tourism or business, up to 90 days, renewable within its stated aggregate limit.
  - Ordinary valid travel document and short visitor travel only; final admission remains controlled.
  - Residence, work, study, transit, special passports and third-country-document routes are excluded.
