The circular dated September 30, 2026 aims primarily to prevent the use of the Dominican Republic as a platform to evade Haitian customs controls. However, cross-border trade in goods produced in the Dominican Republic remains authorized via official land border crossings.
Furthermore, the Dominican Republic banned the Haitian national football team on Friday from playing matches on its territory following an incident that occurred on October 2 during the "Hispaniola derby" between the two nations.
