I was told that you need to create a corporation and the Corp opens the account. If you do not speak Spanish well I would chose a bank with English speaking employees. Any of the National Banks are safe. Either Bank of Costa Rica or Banco National. Chose the branch closely because where you open the account is a contract between you and the bank any problems will need to be dealt with at that branch.
You will need a letter from a lawyer that states that you have the right to act on behalf of the Corp. You will need to meet with an accountant so he can give you a letter stating how much money you can put in every month. Take about 4 or 5 months of bank statements with you for the accountant to review. He will tell the bank how munch you can deposit each month
You will also need two letters of recommendation from a Tico. You will also need a water bill. Borrow one if you need to. Have an address to give them even if it is not yours at the time. Fix it when you get a permanent address.
Hope this helps. Chet[/quote]
