In recent years, the free zone sector has maintained constant growth, becoming one of the most dynamic sectors of the economy, thus positioning the Dominican Republic among the first places worldwide in terms of production capacity and product quality.

Free zones are regulated by Law 8-90 for the Promotion of Dominican Free Zones, which unified their operation and development in a single legal instrument and, additionally, created the National Council of Free Zones, a government body that is responsible for ensuring compliance of said law, as well as promote and develop said sector.

Investing in free zones offers great advantages, such as a huge variety of tax exemptions and incentives that favor their development and growth.

According to the latest report from the National Council of Free Zones there are 75 free zone parks operating in the Dominican Republic, having 695 companies established within them, made up of 1,913 different items destined for 122 countries.

Currently, most of the companies in the free zone are dedicated to the manufacture of medical devices, textiles, electronic components, cigarettes, tobacco, footwear, jewelry, computing, among others.
