I can't really imagine any situation that involves regular police where they'd request this.I came across this comment made in response to a post in one of the Facebook DR expat groups about 6 foreigners in court for not producing their passports to police with some of them having digital copies in their phone. Is this some type of new enforcement action that is going on?
@NanSanPedro @SKY @Joseph NY2STI @CristoRey @Meemselle @AlterEgo et. al, thoughts? It seems unclear if the issue is the lack of a copy of the entry stamps or whether they are now prosecuting not having a physical passport when demanded.
I can imagine a deeper dive into documents if you were wrapped up into some trouble.
