Is the export of rough or raw amber from the Domincan Republic permitted?
The export of amber is not permitted unless it had been partially worked by native artisans. The purpose of these restrictions is to protect the national amber industry and their artisans. You will want to buy from reputable providers who are aware and respect the requirements as provided by the law. We also recommend the use of official transport operators that handle your goods in a responsible way. Travelers, who are caught smuggling might get their goods confiscated and/or be liable to pay a penalty.
