About Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic is a Caribbean nation occupying the eastern part of the island of Hispaniola. Spanish is the official language. The country's economy is widely known for its strong tourism sector, agriculture, and trade.

The spirits market

Alcohol is legal with private sector distribution and no state retail monopoly. Imports must go through registered commercial entities, facing a 20% MFN duty (0% under CAFTA-DR and EU-CARIFORUM), excise taxes, and 18% ITBIS. Local production centers heavily around rum, cane spirits, and mamajuana. Strong tourism and the recent exemption from mandatory TRAFICO fiscal stamps offer favorable opportunities for exporters of premium whiskies, vodkas, and gins.
