Dominican Republic e-invoicing

Americas · Clearance (DGII validation)

Clearance under Ley 32-23: each e-CF is signed, sent to the DGII for validation (track-id) and only then valid. About 190 authorised e-invoicing providers, plus a free DGII facturador for small issuers. Large local and medium taxpayers may issue only e-CF from 1 Nov 2026; type-B paper sequences expire 31 Oct 2026; the final small/micro deadline is 15 Nov 2026.

Small/micro must issue e-CF by 15 Nov 2026

Does this apply to me?

Two questions. The fixed-establishment rule is where most foreign businesses get it wrong.

Roughly how big is the business?

Is your business established in the Dominican Republic – a company, branch, or fixed establishment there?

Not in scope for the Dominican Republic

With no establishment and no RNC registration, the e-CF mandate does not reach you. Selling into the country from abroad stays outside it – the importer of record handles the local documents. Revisit if you set up locally or register with the DGII.

RNC-registered – the calendar reaches you too

Ley 32-23 works off your DGII taxpayer classification, not your place of incorporation – a foreign business with an RNC falls into a segment like any local taxpayer (most foreign registrants count as unclassified, deadline 15 Nov 2026). Confirm your segment with the DGII rather than assuming you are outside.

In scope – your deadline is 15 Nov 2026

Small, micro and unclassified taxpayers must issue e-CF by 15 Nov 2026 (extended automatically from May by Aviso 06-26). The DGII's free facturador covers low-volume issuers – certify early rather than in the November rush, because penalties apply after the deadline.

In scope – you should already be issuing e-CF

Large and medium taxpayers have been obliged since 2024–2025. From 1 Nov 2026 you may issue only e-CF – type-B paper sequences expire 31 Oct 2026. If any part of your invoicing still runs on paper contingency, close that gap now.

Scope

Every fiscal receipt type becomes an e-CF – signed XML validated by the DGII before it circulates. The rollout is phased by taxpayer segment under Ley 32-23: large national (2024), large local and medium (2025), then small, micro and unclassified taxpayers by 15 Nov 2026. New registrants get 120 days from registration.

Penalties & grace period

Ley 32-23 art. 34 – fines of 5 to 30 minimum salaries plus accessory sanctions. The DGII has confirmed penalties apply once the 15 Nov 2026 deadline passes.
