Costa Rica – New Digital Nomad Visa

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)
