Does anyone know if it is possible to have a hot dog vendor type business on the beachs in Costa Rica? Is it tough to get a permit and what are the laws pertaining to food vendors? Thanks for any info.
I’m sure that there are but PLEASE remember there are MANY laws that will prevent a foreigner from coming to Costa Rica and working without the correct type of residency.
Think of how difficult it would be for a Costa Rican to fly to the US and start selling hotdogs on the beach in California….

I’m sorry Scott, I didn’t make my self clear on the point of residency. I will be applying for my residency as soon as I arrive and get settled. As soon as all my business is completed here, it is Costa Rica here I come. I have been coming to Costa Rica since 1986, boy have I seen changes. Do you know what area of the government I should check? Thanks!
I’m sure Scott can tell you more specifics on what you are asking. Just be forwarned, it is not as easy as just applying for residencie when you first arrive. The process can take up to a year or more, and depending on what type of residency you obtain, you still may not be allowed to work in even your own business.
