Dominican Republic – DIGEMAPS will be a decentralized, autonomous agency and will promote the homologation of sanitary registrations of imported food and medicines

One month after the General Directorate of Medicines, Food and Health Products (DIGEMAPS in Spanish) ceased to be a unit attached to the Ministry of Public Health to become a decentralized institution with Decree N°231-23, the entity is working on improving and modernizing some of its processes.

Among them is the homologation of sanitary registrations of foods brought from countries such as the United States and those that are part of the European Union.
