    Can somebody explain the process in Costa Rica for Residency Renewal. We own a house in the Jaco area. Is a lawyer required or can we do it in our own?
    Thanks

    we had to go to BCR in Quepos with our documentation. If you don’t direct deposit your funds during your residency they will not accept it. We then ended using the attorney that we used to do the residency the first time.

    Phone 900-0034639, which requires a ‘special phone’ to make an appointment with BCR at the nearest branch permitted to do renewals.

    will be told what to bring, such as copies of your existing cedula, copies of passport (maybe required) copies up-to-date CAJA payment receipt, copies of bill showing your ‘address’.

    The cost will be approx $130 each including delivery charges.

    It will depend on when and what residency status you have, be it Investor, Pensionado or Rentista and when you received you initial residency cedula, if you are required to bring proof of exchange funds…although if this is you first renewal, i don’t expect you need to show this exchange.
