Why do you say that they have up until 8 p.m. to make money. now the Discotecas are in trouble

If the curfew started at 9pm or 10pm, the restaurants could stay open until 8pm. Discotecas and bars were already in trouble and not allowed to open. I don't see how this changes much for them(?).

Here's info on the curfew. Only 20 days this time (hopefully). Most are under curfew Monday-Friday 7 pm to 5 am and Saturday-Sunday 5 pm to 5 am.

Hi,

can someone please tell me how to apply for a single-day permission to be on the highway enroute to our village after a late arrival at SDQ during this time of curfew?

Look at Page 2 above - Article 8
Arriving or departing International passengers are exempt

That is an excellent question. Maybe someone knows?

Or will late night arrival fights be cancelled because of the curfew?
Hundreds of people will likely need the same type of permission to move about for such late arriving flights.
Sounds like one of those unthought of problems where a curfew and keeping tourism open have possible unintended consequences.

In the past, proof of your airline arrival was sufficient as well as proof of where you are going

Thanks for pointing this out, it is post #20 on the first page of this thread and, as William says, article 4:8 on the second page. I guess it might help taxi drivers and passengers to be able to quote that if questioned or stopped.

International passengers and operators of private or commercial vehicles that are transferring them, as well as duly identified employees of the maritime and air transport sector, in transit or from ports and airports.

I dont think they are on trouble business wise... they just don't pay there bills here... it give them an excuse

Travel after curfew certainly will be challenge. What about waiting until the morning. Stay somewhere close to airport. But apart from that we can travel during the day right. For instance SD to Samana?

Or they can take a taxi home according to the exemptions for travel during the curfew.
Be sure to have your flight arrival or departure information and the address to which you are going if arriving.

An ex pat own a hotel and restaurant. Yesterday the police arrested 7 patrons for not wearing masks. Its getting ugly

I heard the 7 were arrested for having been in the RD longer than 30 days on a tourist card.

If it's only 7 , nothing to worry about unless it hits 8.

I heard they are detaining folks that can't peaky pani. Then they triage who gets deported based on your Coby results, which, by chance, always comes back positivo!

Arriving passengers need to carry their ticket and arrival doc.
Departing travellers should carry their printed itinerary with them.
Agreed transports with permits may circulate.

You guys just love to complicate things....
