Over 1,100 vehicles are listed for reshipment to their ports of origin, according to the Director General of Customs (DGA). What’s more, this does not include the vehicles docked at the port of Boca Chica, and the DGA is hurrying to gather the exact number of out-of-date vehicles, excluding large trucks and construction equipment, that are currently in the Dominican ports of entry. By Law 147-00, a tax reform law, no vehicle older than five years may be imported to the Dominican Republic. Yesterday the return of older vehicles began. There is, however, one more solution for those vehicles currently in port. By means of Circular 20024, the DGA authorized collection officials to clear vehicles of pre-2000 manufacture if they are revalued as if they were 2000 model year vehicles. This is a one-off opportunity and the only other result is that the vehicles will be shipped out. Any further imports of out-of-date vehicles will result in their seizure.
