[quote=”costaricafinca”][b]Valentina[/b], that is much less expensive than I have read elsewhere.
One thing that did come up a couple of times was that [i]”A release from SITES (3 month permit) this can be a problem as the permit can run out before other things line up”.[/i] After which, one man was required to pay $8000 in ‘boarding fees’.[/quote]
A CITES permit is about $75 per bird.
[quote=”loraine”]I have two parrots myself (sun conure and blue crown conure) as i was told that bringing them in wasn’t a problem, but forget getting them out. Thankfully, while I have land there, it’ll be many years before I actually live there and then it would only be a half year. I would never consider bringing my birds because, as you question, what would happen if you wanted to return to the US. I would never take that chance–can you leave them with someone in the US and just visit them? It seems like that would be the ‘safest’ thing to do.[/quote]
Your parrots can exit Costa Rica as long as they both have a CITES permit.
