Costa Rica Travel Tips
Customs Information
What You Can Bring - although Costa Rica customs officials rarely check tourists' luggage, visitors arriving in Costa Rica are officially allowed to bring the following into the country:
- 500 grams of tobacco
- 5 liters of liquor
- $500 in merchandise
- Electronic equipment (computers, cameras, digital music players) for personal use are allowed duty free
What you can take home with you
- US citizens are allowed to leave Costa Rica with $800 worth of merchandise duty free once every 30 days. A flat duty fee is applied to the next $1000. Beyond this amount, duty fees vary. If you owe a duty fee, you're required to pay the duty upon arrival in the United States.
Travel quotes:
"What you've done becomes the judge of what you're going to do - especially in other people's minds. When you're traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don't have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road."
William Least Heat Moon, Blue Highways
