A new visa for 'digital nomads' will be available to
remote workers who can obtain a permit for up to one year, which
would be extendable for an additional year.
These remote workers would also be exempt from local income
taxes, may open a local bank account, and be allowed to drive with
their country's driver license.
In order to be eligible for this visa, one must:
- Have proof of monthly stable income for the last year with an
amount equal or greater than 3000 USD.
- Have medical insurance to cover the stay in Costa Rica.
- Pay the filing fee to obtain the non-resident visa (amount yet
to be determined)
Please contact an immigration specialist if you require
assistance.
