The Dominican Republic is increasingly positioning itself as an attractive destination for international real estate investment, thanks to a solid legal framework that includes the Real Estate Registry Law 108-05, the Foreign Investment Law 16-95, and the Tourism Development Promotion Law 158-01 (Confotur). According to Alfredo Guzmán Saladín, partner at Guzmán Ariza, these laws provide real protection for both domestic and foreign investors, offering benefits such as exemption from real estate transfer tax, a 15-year exemption from the Real Estate Property Tax (IPI), and unrestricted capital repatriation — making the country a highly competitive jurisdiction at the regional level.
Added to this are advances in the digitalization of title registries and courts, the incorporation of electronic signatures, and institutional modernization — all factors that have strengthened investor confidence and improved the country’s standing in global ease-of-doing-business rankings.
