Make the people behind the move clear
Put the people and the belongings in the same plan.
Moving your home to the Dominican Republic, or sending goods to someone there? Tell us who the belongings are for, what needs to go and where the job should finish. Our team handles the survey and manages the packing, collection and receiving work agreed for your shipment.
Start with whose belongings they are
If you are moving your own home, say that at the start. Describe the furniture and packages you intend to take and how the receiving arrangements fit your plans.
If the goods are for another person, explain that instead. Do not describe business goods or items for someone else as your own household move simply to fit a category.
Build a list of the belongingsMatch the preparation to what is going
Bring a room list and point out delicate pieces, large furniture and difficult access. Our full-service moves include professional international packing, furniture dismantling and reassembly, with the work agreed for your belongings.
Our international packing specialists have over 20 years of experience. Let the survey cover the pieces and preparation you actually want included.
Count each package type and add external measurements, approximate weight and broad contents. Say what is already packed and what still needs preparing.
Prepare package detailsCheck the process for the person moving
Dominican Republic Customs, the Dirección General de Aduanas (DGA), provides a household-move reference for different personal circumstances. An item list or shipping enquiry does not decide whether relief applies.
Read the DGA household-move reference (PDF) . This three-page file was linked from the DGA homepage when reviewed on 6 November 2026. No issue or revision date was established. Confirm current applicability with DGA; this page supplies no universal checklist or exemption decision.
Put responsibilities beside the quoted work
Our established destination agents can assist with paperwork, port collection and home delivery. You can choose shipping to port or manage your own paperwork. Agree the arrangements for the actual route and address rather than assuming every task is included.
Clear up the practical questions
Yes. Explain whether these are your own household belongings or goods for another person. That gives the review the right starting point without assuming a customs category or eligibility.
Give the number of boxes or barrels, external dimensions, approximate weight and broad contents. Mention any fragile or unusual item and whether packing help is needed.
Yes. Show the belongings during the survey. Full-service moves include international packing, dismantling and reassembly, with the work identified in the quotation. Packing-only booking conditions need a separate check.
You can ask for shipping to port or manage your own paperwork. Tell us which tasks you intend to handle and what help you want reviewed. The route, handover and charges need to reflect that choice.
No. The responsible authority decides how the current requirements apply to your circumstances. Use the official reference to prepare questions, then confirm the procedure before relying on relief.
Use the route leaving the country option and name the intended destination. Collection and receiving arrangements for that direction need their own review.
