Summary:

On March 15, 2004, the United States and the Dominican Republic concluded a draft free-trade agreement to integrate the Dominican Republic into the earlier signed Central American Free-Trade Agreement (CAFTA). The final agreement (DR-CAFTA) was signed by all parties on August 5, 2004. The Dominican Republic would have its own market access provisions, but would accept the rest of the CAFTA framework. Legislation to implement DR-CAFTA might be considered in the 109th Congress. This report will be updated as developments occur.
