# #DominicanRepublic 🇩🇴 #BDS\_LaborAlert: New SDSS Contribution Caps Effective as of February 2026

The Social Security Treasury (TSS) announced the **update of the contribution caps** applicable to the Contributory Regime of the Dominican Social Security System (SDSS), which **entered into force** as of **February 1, 2026**.

This update results from the **increase in the** **national minimum wage** for the general private sector, set at RD$23,223.00 pursuant to Resolution CNS-01-2025 of the National Salary Committee, and **aims to maintain consistency within the financing structure** of the social security system.

**New Maximum Contribution Caps**

As of the date indicated, the **maximum contributable salary limits** for each insurance under the Contributory Regime are established as follows:

• Occupational Risk Insurance: **RD$92,892.00**  
• Family Health Insurance: **RD$232,230.00**  
• Old-Age, Disability and Survivors Insurance (Pensions): **RD$464,460.00**

These caps determine the **maximum salary** baseupon which **mandatory contributions** by both employers and employees are calculated, in accordance with the current SDSS regulations.

**Considerations for Companies**

The adjustment of the maximum contribution caps seeks to ensure the **financial sustainability of the system** and the adequate social protection of affiliated individuals, in line with the evolution of the national minimum wage.

Accordingly, as recently emphasized by the TSS, were mind employers of the importance of **correctly applying the new values in their reports and payments** in order to avoid inconsistencies, subsequent adjustments, or contingencies arising from non-compliance.
