General law on business associations
In an effort to reform the corporate law in the Dominican Republic, a new law was enacted on 11 December 2008, the General Law on Business Associations and Limited Liability Proprietorships, number 479-08 (“Law 479-08” or the “Law”), as an urgent need for driving Dominican corporate practices within a global economy ever more open and competitive.
JCP has created a document outlining the most salient features of this new law. Download PDF
