Although visits to Dominica are generally trouble free, you should still take the same precautions you would anywhere else in the world and familiarise yourself with the local laws and customs. Travel insurance to cover theft and medical expenses is recommended.

Remain vigilant of your surroundings, avoid venturing into isolated areas alone (especially at night), and avoid carrying large sums of cash and flashy displays of wealth. Roadside assistance is not widely available and the roads can be hazardous so you should take care when driving.

A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required if you are travelling from an infected country. Mosquito-borne diseases are a risk so precautions should be taken to avoid bites. Recommended and routine vaccinations include: hepatitis A & B, typhoid, rabies, MMR, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, meningitis, varicella, and polio.
