Special Customs Regulations
Since 10 January, 2010, we started the SIGA's (Sistema Integrado de Gestion Aduanera) - a Dominican customs automatic system at the Caucedo port.
From the moment of its application, all shipment should be consigned to a customer located in Dominican Republic
with this new automatic system, for all import cargo it will be mandatory to declare the shipper/ consignee and indicate their tax ID number (RNC Registro Nacional del Contribuyente for Dominican companies), Cedula de Identidad y Electoral (national ID) for Dominican’s citizens and permanent legal resident, or passport number for foreigners. Since we are under regulation BR0169 RCN for local customer already registered on TMS, it is imperative for clients to has a TMS CODE. You are therefore requested to include these details for all import cargo inside your DTX manifest.
Dominican custom authorities require that all shipment charges be duly stamped on bills of lading and declared to their offices. The noncompliance to this disposition will lead to the payment of a RD$6,000.00 to MSC DOMINICANA, S.A., which will be passed on to the issuing agent.
Split BL's by customs are allowed in the Dominican Republic.
Since the last Dominican customs meeting held with customs authorities, shippers and freight forwarders on 27 July, 2016, it has been reinforced and made mandatory to have all BLs freighted, except those than have a freight forwarder as CNEE. This measure became mandatory since fraudulent freight charges were reported to customs authorities. Please do not accept any requirement for un-freighted bills of lading.
No dummy bill of lading will be accepted, as it leads to lateness presenting the correct documentation to customs and the incurring of fines.
Consignee's address & telephone numbers should always be provided, especially when the consignee is a physical person.
Import repositions seal fee: 36.00 $ USD.
