This Wikipedia article covers the 16 June 1954 concordat between the Dominican Republic, then under Rafael Trujillo, and the Holy See under Pius XII, which names Catholicism the state religion and grants the Church clergy exemption from military service, permission to teach in public orphanages, and, in the article's own words, use of public funds for Church needs and low customs duties on Church goods. It remains the governing instrument today.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
A crowd sourced encyclopedia article used as the weaker relay form; it names the concordat's use of public funds for Church needs and low customs duties on Church goods without the underlying treaty's own line item detail, a narrow and checkable claim about a still current arrangement, hence the lowest tier rather than exclusion.
