The Dominican Republic is identified as a transshipment point for Chinese products.

According to a White House report released on Thursday, approximately 40 countries, including key trading partners of Washington, are being utilized as transshipment points to reroute goods—predominantly from China—into the United States. The primary objective of this practice is to circumvent established tariffs.

The Dominican Republic has been specifically identified among the nations serving as these transit hubs for Chinese products destined for the U.S. market. The findings highlight vulnerabilities in supply chain routing and international trade enforcement regarding tariff avoidance.
