FAQ

What people ask us most.

How much does it cost to ship from New York to the Dominican Republic?

Documents cost US$ 60, regardless of weight. Packages are charged by the pound: US$ 50 up to 3 lb, plus US$ 8 per additional pound. Customs taxes are not included. We confirm the price when we weigh your shipment at the office. See the full price table.

How long does a shipment to the Dominican Republic take?

The estimated time is 4 to 6 business days. It depends on the carrier, flights and the Customs review, so we can’t guarantee a delivery date. You can follow every status online.

Do shipments go by air or by sea?

By air, with an outside carrier. That’s why the estimated time is measured in business days, not weeks.

Does the recipient in the Dominican Republic need a RUA?

For packages, yes. Dominican Customs (DGA) requires anyone receiving courier shipments to be enrolled in the Customs Registry (RUA). It’s done online, once, and the recipient is the one who enrolls. How to register for the RUA.

Do I pay taxes when shipping to the Dominican Republic?

It depends on the value and use. Personal shipments up to US$200 may enter tax-free if the recipient has a RUA, though a per-kilo fee may apply. Over US$200, taxes apply. Dominican Customs makes the decision, not RV Courier. See how customs categories work.

Do you pick up packages from my home in New York?

No. We receive shipments at our office in the Bronx, so you need to bring them in. You can register the shipment online first to save time at the counter. Office address and hours.

What is the RV reference?

It’s the number we give you when we register your shipment: RV followed by 10 digits. Use it to check the status on our website, no account needed. Track a shipment.
