Costa
Rica
awaits you,
Pura Vida !
Congratulations!
On your decision to relocate to Costa
Rica
as a Pensionado, Rentista or Inversionista.
Regardless of the
reason you are going to Costa Rica - be it retirement, business, investment
or family, you can now apply for Resident status while you still reside
in your home country.
Since
December 2005, the Government of Costa
Rica
has made several important changes to its immigration and residency
laws. Additional changes are currently pending before the Costa Rican
Asamblea Nacional. Please see the "News
& Updates" for additional information about these proposed
changes.
As a result of the
changes brought about by the new Costa Rican Immigration Reform Law,
effective August 12, 2006, when you are applying to become a legal resident
of Costa
Rica
under the Pensionado, Rentista or Inversionista programs, you must now
submit your application for residency (and supporting documentation)
to the local Costa Rican consulate in your country of origin.
Although some of
the filing requirements have changed, the complexity and time-consuming
paperwork requirements built into the residency application process
still remain in effect. Working together, Residency in Costa Rica helps
you navigate the complex application process step by step.
