This past September 1st an innovative online registration system started operating mainly for transnational companies that require foreign executives or technicians here in Costa Rica.
This idea was promoted by the Ministry of Competitiveness and Immigration Authorities, and the first companies interested were Intel, Temenos Costa Rica, Ericsson and Surf Factory, however a long list of approximately fifty other companies are awaiting for this chance.
Basically, this mechanism intends to facilitate the procedure when applying for a work permit, this way companies have to be registered online (www.competitividad.go.cr/migracion/web/index.html). Later they file the information of each employee required in Costa Rica. Applications will be solved in ten days. If they are approved, the identity documents will be delivered through a mail system.
In the same web site other company formalization procedures can be done, they consist on basic previous paperwork such as:
• Operating Health Permit from the Health Ministry
• Work Risk Insurance
• Comercial License
• Registration as taxpayer
• Real Estate registry
• Construction procedures
• Environmental Impact Assessment
• Operation Veterinarian Certificates
GLC can assist you before, during and after the process, including all the requirements necessary for your company to be registered or recognized, as well as preparing the corresponding applications for the desired workers.
