Importing used Korean cars to Dominican Republic
The Dominican Republic drives on the right and bans right-hand-drive imports, so left-hand-drive Korean cars fit directly. A hard 5-year age cap (Law 04-07) means demand skews to recent, low-mileage stock — the Hyundai and Kia sedans and 7-seat SUVs (Sorento, Santa Fe) that suit family use and the local climate.
