The Dominican Republic is located in the Caribbean, achieving independence in 1978. Although it is not considered a foreign legal jurisdiction and a tax haven, it benefits international businesses. The country's tax regime is territorial and is attractive to many types of businesses.

The gaming industry in the Dominican Republic is closely related to the tourism industry, which has turned the country into a real casino resort. The availability of casino games in the country attracted around 4.4 million tourists in 2009. There are currently more than 60 land-based casinos in the Dominican Republic.

Gambling Laws of Dominica 

On the island nation of Dominica, there are still many legal forms of gambling. Some of the legitimate options include lottery and horse racing betting. However, due to the size of the island, there aren't many options available to residents.

The law governing misdemeanors, including gambling, known as the Small Charges Act, actually existed before the country gained independence, as it had been in effect since 1891. Since then, the law has been modified many times. In particular, gambling has been regulated since 1964.

By law, it is illegal to receive any other person at any home or place for gambling purposes, with imprisonment up to 3 months. Those caught gambling must stop and leave with the first warning, or else they will be prosecuted. People caught gambling on the street or in public places will also be punished. However, this law does not apply to lotteries, pari-mutuel betting, and charity events approved by the Ministry of Finance.

The Small Charges Act does not explicitly regulate online gambling. Dominica grants online gambling licenses to International Business Companies provided it is not accessible to Dominican players. This may indicate that the gambling ban extends to online play as well. Dominican gambling licensees are often underrepresented and therefore often unreliable.
