The Christmas Affairs Committee has announced that during the holiday season, when a large number of visitors enter the country, they plan to install a security system extending from Las Americas International Airport (AILA) to the Juan Bosch Bridge in Santo Domingo in order to protect visitors traveling to the city from the airport from potential attacks and car-jackings. AILA spokesperson Victor Minaya said that in order to ensure the physical safety of visitors to the country, the 15-km security system will include National Police and Armed Forces officials, and will be active 24 hours a day.
The government recently announced that Dominican expatriates can bring in duty free up to US$1,500 in gifts for friends and relatives this year.
