Customs director Rafael Camilo announced that the DR has signed the Kyoto Convention to simplify and harmonize international customs procedures. Countries that join the Convention commit themselves to using computer systems to speed up border clearances and to use modern analytical techniques to pinpoint risky shipments for inspection.
