Because the
entry law
for cruising boats was implemented whilst the law was not
entirely clear, the President has revoked the law and asked that it be
rewritten, so that when it is re-implemented, it will cover all
situations, including anchored boats, local Dominican boats, etc. In the interim, everything goes back to the way it was. That is:-Clearing in - $43 -30 Day Visa per crew member - $15 - Despachos from port-to-port will be required and will be administered by the coast guard. There is no charge for them, however we have been advised that a tip for this service of $15 US is customary. Still in place is that each and every harbor may assess fees, such as a fee for rubbish discharge, or for anchoring. It depends on the harbor. The marina in Puerto Plata, Oceanworld, has a contract with Portuario (Dept of Ports) whereby they pay a fee of $50 US per week for cruising boats in the marina. Therefore, foreign visiting yachts here are charged this, however this charge ONLY applied to Oceanworld. |
