The Government of Dominica has extended the existing Value Added Tax (VAT) exemption and import-duty waivers on a range of essential goods for an additional two months, providing continued relief to households facing the impact of global inflation and higher import costs.
Announcing the measure during the presentation of the 2026/2027 National Budget, Minister for Finance, Economic Development, Climate Resilience and Social Security, Hon. Dr. Irving McIntyre, said the relief will now remain in effect until September 30, 2026.
