Haiti - Social :  «Haitian authorities have no excuses» dixit Edwin Paraison
In an interview with a Dominican media, Edwin Parison, the Executive Director of the Zile Foundation (former Consul of Haiti in the Dominican Republic) said he was in favor of the establishment of a service for issuance of Haitian passports in Dominican territory.

According to Mr. Parison "Haitian authorities have no valid excuse to justify the absence of issuance of Haitian passports in Dominican territory [...] Haitian migrants in the Dominican territory have the right to identity documents. I find it unacceptable that they are treated like poor parents, while 56% of Haitian passports issued abroad are for this community."

Mr. Parison criticized the fact that all application files for Haitian passports products outside the country are sent to the Embassy of Haiti in Washington, which is the only entity issuing Haitian passports abroad according to him "This way of acting, slow the delivery time of passports, which can be estimated to two or three months."

Edwin Parison urged the Haitian government to revise the passport issuance process, to make it more accessible. He calls the Haitian authorities to work to make available issuance services of identity documents to all Haitian migrants, particularly those who are in neighboring Republic, allowing them to benefit from the National Plan of Regularization of Foreigners illegally in Dominican Republic (PNRE).

Recall that since the beginning of registrations in PNRE, June 2, 2014. 31,000 people visited the office to make their request. Problem ! Less than 100 persons in possession of all required documents have been able to complete their registration. Nearly 6,000 people had only some documents and the rest of the applicants had no document to present, revealed José Ramón Fadul, the Minister of the Interior and the Dominican police. Knowing that 97% of foreign applicants are of Haitian nationality, he urged the Haitian authorities to document and assist their nationals.
