IN COSTA RICACosta Rica’s digital nomad program invites international residents to work remotely from the land of pura vida. This program extends a 90-day tourist visa to a full year, with the option to renew for an additional year. Digital nomads are exempt from income tax and enjoy other benefits including the ability to open a national bank account in Costa Rica and validation of their home country’s driver’s license. Digital nomads may also waive customs taxes on telecommunications and electronic devices necessary to fulfill remote work requirements (conditions apply).
Requirements:
Foreign nationals may apply to the immigration sub-category of Stay (Estancia) for Remote Workers and Service Providers if they provide paid services remotely, irrespective of whether such services are subcontracted, using digital or telecommunication technologies or analogous means, to a natural person or legal entity located outside of Costa Rica, earning a minimum amount of three thousand U.S. dollars ($3,000.00) per month originating from outside of Costa Rica for the provision of such services, or a minimum of four thousand U.S. dollars ($4,000.00) per month originating from outside of Costa Rica for the provision of such services if they also wish to apply for their dependents to legally stay in the country. The above amounts will be determined in accordance with the official sale price set by the Central Bank of Costa Rica. More information here.
