Shipping to Dajabón and export from Dajabón, Dominican Republic
Dajabón is a border province in the northwest, known for its rice, plantain and cattle, and for the binational market held in the town of Dajabón on the border with Haiti. It is inland, so cargo reaches it by truck from the main gateways. We import into Dajabón from anywhere in the world and export from it worldwide, and our service covers the whole province, not only the capital.

The provincial capital is Dajabón.

Ports and airports for Dajabón
Dajabón has no seaport of its own. The closest seaport for general cargo is Manzanillo, in Monte Cristi province, and some containers arrive through Puerto Plata or Caucedo and are trucked in. Cibao International (STI) is the usual airport for air cargo. We choose the routing according to the carrier, the cargo and the schedule, and we confirm it at booking instead of promising a fixed path.

Rice, plantain, banana, beans, cattle and dairy are the base of the rural economy, and the town of Dajabón has a busy commercial sector tied to the border trade. Construction, transport and small industry supply the area. Imports focus on farm inputs, building materials, appliances and consumer goods, and exports focus on agricultural products.
Importing to Dajabón from anywhere in the world
Farmers and traders import tools, machinery, packaging and inputs; shops, wholesalers and distributors bring in stock; builders import materials and fixtures; and families receive barrels, boxes, vehicles and household moves from relatives overseas. Cargo clears customs and is trucked to the warehouse, the farm, the shop or the house, with a receiving contact confirmed in advance.
Exporting from Dajabón to the world
Producers and businesses export rice, plantain, banana and other agricultural goods, and individuals send personal shipments overseas. We handle collection in the province, the invoice and packing list, the export declaration and the booking, and we advise on the packing and certificates that agricultural products often need for the destination country.
Pickup and delivery across Dajabón
Dajabón is far from Santo Domingo, and the market days in the town can mean heavy traffic and tight streets for trucks. We schedule pickups and deliveries around those hours, and we ask for exact directions and a local phone number for farms and warehouses outside the town. When access is narrow, we arrange a smaller vehicle for the final stretch.
