The free zone framework
The Dominican zonas francas regime is a genuine structural advantage of DR delivery. Here is how it works.
The Dominican Republic operates a mature free zone regime, known as zonas francas, that supports export-oriented services and manufacturing. It is a structural advantage for outsourcing clients that most nearshore markets cannot match, and Corpshore Dominicana operates within it.
What the regime is
The Dominican free zone regime, known locally as zonas francas, is a long-established legal framework that supports export-oriented services and manufacturing operations. It is one of the most developed such frameworks in the Caribbean and Latin America.
