Dominican RepublicUnlike other Caribbean nations, the Dominican Republic has been a minor player in the licensing of online gaming operations.

In 2006, the Ministry of Finance was granted the right to issue licenses for games of chance including electronic establishments of games of chance. Changes in the fiscal legislation included increasing the tax rate from 25% to 29% for all companies in all industries generating Dominican source income. Telephone and online gaming operations were also deemed as subject to prior registration requirements and a 10% tax on gross revenue.

In 2015, a new bill was introduced that would regulate online poker. There is 1 Dominican Republic site. edit your preferences Dominican Republic Jurisdiction News
