Revised Extradition Treaty Concluded between the Dominican Republic and the United States
The Dominican Republic and the United States have finalized a modern extradition treaty that will override the existing agreement established in 1909. This revised accord is designed to boost collaborative efforts between law enforcement agencies and to streamline the extradition process between the two nations. It expands the list of crimes subject to extradition, now covering offenses such as tax evasion, cyber-related offenses, terrorism, and contract killings, and lays out unequivocal procedures for extradition matters. Before it becomes operative, the treaty will need to be ratified through the established legislative processes in both countries.
