Clearance Port

Haina

The Dominican Republic is an island market with two coasts of ports, which gives buyers routing options that mainland markets don't have.

Ports on both sides

Haina and Caucedo serve the south around Santo Domingo; northern ports serve a separate catchment. Matching the port to the buyer's region shortens the inland leg.

Age and tax

Age limits apply by category and import duty plus ITBIS is levied on value, with higher rates for older units. Left-hand drive is standard and conformity paperwork must be complete before registration.

What moves

Compact SUVs and reliable saloons are the steady sellers. Tell us the region and use and we will shortlist and quote the landed total.
