How to Send Flowers to the Dominican Republic from Abroad
You can send flowers to the Dominican Republic from abroad by ordering online and letting a local florist make the delivery. Order at DominicanRepublicflorist.com, pay in US dollars with an international card or PayPal, and the florist hand-delivers to any address in the country. Bouquets start at USD 63.24, plus a flat USD 14.95 delivery fee.
Can you send flowers to the Dominican Republic from abroad?
Yes. Orders are accepted from any country, so the process is the same whether you are in the USA, the UK, Canada, Spain or somewhere else. Many senders are expats and their families who want to remember someone at home.
Coverage includes all of the Dominican Republic. City pages cover places such as Santo Domingo and Punta Cana, along with 22 more city pages, so most addresses are within reach.
How do you order from abroad, step by step?
- Browse the flowers and plants and choose a bouquet, arrangement or plant. The catalog has 152 options.
- Add an optional extra if you want one: a box of chocolates, glass vase, plush teddy bear, greeting card, balloons or a wine bottle.
- Write your message. Every order includes a free printed card.
- Enter the recipient's name, full address and phone number. Add a preferred delivery time in the delivery instructions if you have one.
- Pay in USD with Visa, Mastercard or American Express, or with PayPal.
- The local florist prepares the order and hand-delivers it.
Sending from the USA works the same way as sending from Europe. Prices in euros and pounds are shown for reference only, and your card is charged in dollars.
How long does delivery take, and when should you order?
Orders placed before 11:00 am Dominican Republic time, Monday to Saturday, are delivered the same day in most areas. Later orders are delivered the next day. There are no deliveries on Sundays or main public holidays.
Check the clock in the Dominican Republic, not your own time zone. It is often several hours behind Europe, so a morning order in Madrid can be too late for a same-day delivery there. You can write a preferred time in the delivery instructions, and the florist will try to meet it, but exact time slots are not guaranteed.
For the dates below, order at least 2 to 3 days ahead.
| Occasion | Date | Order by | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christmas (Navidad) | December 25, 2026 | December 22 | Public holiday, so no delivery that day |
| Valentine's Day (Día de San Valentín) | February 14, 2027 | February 11 | Falls on a Sunday, so aim for Saturday, February 13 |
| Mother's Day (Día de las Madres) | May 30, 2027 | May 27 | Last Sunday of May, so aim for Saturday, May 29 |
How much does it cost to send flowers to the Dominican Republic?
Bouquets start at USD 63.24, and the top price in the catalog is USD 172.49. Every order also carries a flat USD 14.95 delivery fee, so the lowest total is USD 78.19 before any add-ons.
For a sense of the range, the Lilac Reverie Vase is USD 74.74, the Citrus Glow Centerpiece is USD 91.99, and the Iridescent Rose Luxe is USD 137.99. Each of these is plus the delivery fee.
You are charged in USD. Your card issuer may add its own foreign transaction fee, so check with your bank before you order.
Which flowers are right for the Dominican Republic, and which should you skip?
Match the arrangement to the occasion. For birthdays and celebrations, a bright centerpiece or a full arrangement suits the mood. For a funeral or condolence, choose from the sympathy collection instead.
Avoid funeral-style flowers for happy occasions. White lilies, for example, are commonly used at funerals in many Latin American countries, so skip them for birthdays or congratulations.
Red roses are the classic choice for romance, which makes them a natural fit for Valentine's Day. For Mother's Day, a mixed arrangement is a safe choice. Plants are also in the catalog if you want a gift that lasts longer than cut flowers.
Cakes are not sold on the site. If you want to add something sweet, pair the flowers with a box of chocolates or balloons from the add-ons.
What details do you need from the recipient?
You need three things: the recipient's full name, a full delivery address and a phone number. The phone number lets the florist coordinate the delivery, so confirm it with the recipient before you order.
For the address, include the street, house or building details, the neighborhood and the city. In an apartment building, add the building name and apartment number. If the recipient is in a smaller town, check the city list first to confirm coverage.
If you know when the recipient is usually home, add that as a preferred time in the instructions. It helps, but it is a request, not a guaranteed slot.
To place your order, go to DominicanRepublicflorist.com and browse the flowers category. Choose your arrangement, add your card message, enter the recipient's details and pay in USD. Order before 11:00 am local time for same-day delivery, and remember that Sundays and main public holidays are not delivery days.
