Never mind, just found the link, seems they really threw it on BCR http://www.rnpdigital.com/index.htm
April 2, 2012 at 11:07 pm #166345maravillaMemberBCR isn’t ready, that’s for sure. I would wait until the 11th hour to pay it esp since several people have hinted that the rules of engagement could change
April 3, 2012 at 12:33 am #166346elindermullerMemberI will definitely not pay until the second half of April. They should have worked it out by then, maybe…….. 🙄
April 3, 2012 at 1:16 pm #166347maravillaMemberon another board someone suggested waiting even longer than the middle of april because of the potential sala iv decision that may change everything. they cited the traffic fines as a perfect example. the people who paid the egregious fines (i paid $350 for a ticket for parking in the yellow zone!) won’t ever get their money back and now all the fines are a fraction of what was originally posted.
April 3, 2012 at 3:09 pm #166348elindermullerMembersecond half can be the last day and I agree, don’t let them make a dime of interest on our money. I also paid a traffic ticked of almost 300 $ which would now be a fraction of that.
April 4, 2012 at 3:23 am #166349CalatravaMemberThe amounts would be 75% of $270 & $135 respectively according to what I have read, which is $101.25 for sociedad anonima inactiva.
April 4, 2012 at 2:40 pm #166350BibiParticipantThis is the information we have received from two different lawyers:
Active Companies: ¢ 135,000 = $273 approx.
Inactive Companies: ¢ 67,500 = $137 approx.Starting 2013 (*)
Active Companies: ¢ 180,300 = $360 approx.
Inactive Companies: ¢ 90,150 = $180 approx.(*) This amount is approximate because it will be recalculated every year based on a variable scale known as the “base salary” as well as on the exchange rate applicable at that time.

Seems that BCR has figured it out, over 1500 corporations already have paid their tax.
April 8, 2012 at 1:34 pm #166352maravillaMemberi’m still going to wait until the 11th hour to pay — lots can happen in two weeks!
May 1, 2012 at 3:01 pm #166353donbucParticipantI am currently out of the country. I want to pay my taxes online. I have a banco nacional account. Can I psy the tax online from Banco Nacional to BCR?
May 1, 2012 at 10:01 pm #166354costaricabillParticipantIt appears that ehe fine for not paying the corporate tax is 50 colones per day for active corporations and 25 colones for inactive ones.
It is also important to keep in mind that if you have not paid the tax, you cannot get personerias juridicas from the National Registry, so doing any business that involves the corporation would be difficult if not impossible.
May 2, 2012 at 8:21 pm #166355crhomebuilderMemberThe BCR online banking system has not been able to process payment of the taxes. So I went to the BCR branch in Belen and found the wait to be several hours. I got took my ficha and left to get my haircut and ran some other errands and returned to BCR two hours later and my number was called. Once I got to a customer service agent, she told me that the Registro Nacional system was down and that she could not complete the transaction. So I took another ficha, went to lunch and returned an hour an a half later, and my number was called and the Regsitro Nacional system was back on-line and I was able to pay the tax. After 20 years in the jungle, life in ticolandia never ceases to amaze me !
May 2, 2012 at 8:28 pm #166356maravillaMemberdid they fine you for being late? Have they said anything about giving an extension for payment considering all the problems they have had with the sytema?
May 2, 2012 at 8:41 pm #166357crhomebuilderMemberThe fee is calculated on a daily basis in the Registro Nacional computer system. When it’s working.
You pay the tax that appears in the computer at BCR or you don’t. There’s no negotiations or discussions.
You can check out how much is owed by any Persona Jurídica at this site: http://www.rnpdigital.com/shopping/consultaDocumentos/consultaMorosidadPJ.jspx' defer onload='May 3, 2012 at 2:51 pm #166358chasebeagle2000ParticipantDon–No you can pay online only with BCR acct.
