Thanks!

In all honesty i would not mail a ttm to the DM. mail carriers down there make the worst of our look like saints walking on water. sstories of them burning mail is not uncommon.
it would best i foyu sent your request via ups or fedex both to and from. it will cost about 800% more this way but its the safest way to go.

if you send by mail, you'll need Dominican stamps....

You may be able to get some thru their website, and find out how much you'll need for the return.... I can't read Spanish so I can't help.

First, the Dominican postal service is very unreliable (corrupt? shady?) so if you sent something from the United States chances are it may get "lost".
I have an acquaintance in the DR and he has a Miami-based courier service for any US-based mail to make it to him in Santo Domingo. He doesn't trust his postal service. Before he got the courier, he strongly recommended using a 3rd party shipper like UPS, FedEx...but if you've ever checked those prices it's prohibitive.
But then again, if you're sending a five-cent card to Stan Javier in the Dominican and you just want to see what happens, you could try an International Reply Coupon which works like return postage on a SASE. I've never tried it myself, but you could read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_reply_coupon
Good luck!
