The Dominican Republic is "making progress in preparations" to reopen its consulate in Venezuela.

The Dominican Republic's Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Tuesday that it is currently preparing to resume operations at its Consulate General in Caracas. This facility was previously closed in July 2024 following a period of diplomatic friction between the two nations.

The initiative aims to restore consular services for citizens, marking a shift toward normalizing administrative relations. The government is actively working through the necessary logistical steps to facilitate this reopening.
