We have covered this multiple times here.
Working in the DR is hard at best. You need your residency and cedula to work legally. Pay here is very low and very few who have to support themselves here succeed (some do). Those in the IT industry seem to do ok but most work remotely for companies back "home"

Freelance is the same as any other job, you need to be legal and you need to pay your taxes.
MOST freelancers do not work for Dominican clients they work for other foreign clients.
