Well then it is a good thing tourists, nor the government of the Dominican Republic care about what you think.
When a tourist overstays and pays the overstay fee to leave they have satisfied the requirements of the Dominican Republic. True or False?
exactly.
it is solely the DR governemnt's decision how to handle their laws in practice.
in case of the Immigrations Law the DR government handles the portion related to overstaying Tourists in the easy and lax way to cash a overstay fee, nothing more.
that's solely the DR government's decision and it is NOTany Wrong applying of any law, it IS the correct handling of the Government of their Law for a certain group of touristy visitors, which are a welcomecrowd and the government sure has no intention to be bad against that welcome crowd, hence the long time ago implementation of the Overstaying Fees for Touristy Overstayers.
forthe ones who wanna stay legal in the DR longer than30 days, the same government has in place the possibility to extend the 30 days tourist card for up to 120days total, easily done online, same cheap as paying the overstay fees, but with the advantag that such visitor stay's Legal all his/her time in DR territory with the advantages that the travelers medical and other insurances and such things stay valid during the whole 120 days stay etc.
but there is No Wrongful Handling of any law done by the government, because the way the government handles any law, by implementing regulations/fees etc, is always a Right way.
