Student Permits

For a student permit, an applicant must submit the following:
1) A letter, on certified paper affixed with all necessary stamps, to Immigration’s temporary permit department explaining the reason for the permit request as well as the name of local “sponsor” – a legal resident of Costa Rica, Tico or foreign, who will accept responsibility for the applicant’s actions while he/she is in the country. Letter must be certified by a local attorney or Costa Rica Consul.
2) Application form available at the La Uruca Immigration office’s information desk.
3) Four recent passport photographs.
4) A guarantee of $100, which must be deposited with the Temporary permit department, after the permit is approved. Deposit is refunded when applicant returns home.
