Dominican residents in Spain will now be able to renew as well as driving with their Dominican driver's licenses there, thanks to a new agreement signed between the DR and Spain, as reported in Listin Diario. So far 14,000 Dominicans have benefited from this agreement. In order to make this possible, the Dominican Public Works Office, through the Motor Vehicle Department, installed its first renewals office in Madrid. An estimated 30,000 Dominicans in Spain will apply for the licenses. The office will be open from 2pm to 7pm, Monday through Friday. Renewal will cost between EUR150 and EUR200.
Thousands of Dominican women have moved to Spain to work as housekeepers. The driver's license decision opens doors for these to also secure employment, many times in the same household.
