The Tax Agency (DGII) has good news for taxpayers. As of today, Friday 1 August 2014 all contributors registered in the system can request online tax compliance certificates (Certificacion de Cumplimiento de Obligaciones Fiscales). The document is required for many transactions with the government.
Up until now, anyone requesting the certificate had to pay RD$300 at DGII offices and then wait 10 working days to get the document.
The DGII says that the service is now available 24/7 via their website and can be issued online in around five minutes.
A credit card payment is required for issuing the certificate online, and if the certificate cannot be issued, the RD$300 charge will not be applied.
Those who do not have a credit card to pay online, can do so by visiting the head offices of the DGII in Santo Domingo. Plans are to later offer the service at other branches of the DGII nationwide.
The DGII says they had been issuing around 4,940 certificates a day.
The new tax compliance certification does not require a signature or a stamp.
