Looking for imput from other peoples experiences. My personal goods are presently in port in Santo Domingo. I shipped them with a reputable moving company from Canada. My move was set up for door-to-door service with my Canadian company and that I would not have to attend customs myself.
The moving company here in Santo Domingo, who takes over from my Canadian Company is telling me that if I want to pay the taxes on my goods that I do NOT have to come to Santo Domingo for Customs, HOWEVER, if I am wanting to claim the exemption with my residency papers that I MUST come to Santo Domingo for an Interview with Customs.
Any input would be appreciated. I would like to avoid going to Santo Domingo as I am in living in Bavaro and we know the distance is far.
