The Tax Agency (DGII) is set to close 2025 with a strong fiscal performance, projecting accumulated revenues of RD$913.14 billion. This figure represents a 7.9% increase compared to 2024.
With December’s collections, the DGII has now exceeded its estimated revenue targets for 64 consecutive months, marking a significant milestone for the Tax Administration.
The year-end projection indicates a compliance rate of 100.9% regarding the goal established in the Reformulated National Budget, surpassing estimates by RD$8.34 billion.
For December alone, projected collections stand at RD$80.32 billion, reflecting a 15.5% growth and an increase of RD$10.81 billion compared to December 2024. This monthly total represents a compliance rate of 109.7%, exceeding estimates by RD$7.11 billion.
DGII Director General Luis Valdez Veras stated that these results reflect strengthened tax management and the effectiveness of strategies implemented to promote voluntary compliance, improve control processes, and advance institutional modernization.
A joint report by the DGII and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) highlighted a reduction in evasion of the Tax on the Transfer of Industrialized Goods and Services (ITBIS) to 36.5%, a historic low. This decline signals greater taxpayer formalization and the efficiency of the tax administration regarding controls, transparency, and modernization.
On 6 January 2026, President Luis Abinader announced the appointment of Pedro Urrutia Sangiovanni to head the Tax Agency replacing Valdez Vera who had been the director since the start of the first government of Abinader in August 2020.
