Shipping Container to Costa Rica the 101 Cars 🚗 Household Goods, 💲Price💲

[@maria66377]

Pablo and his team are the best!!! They helped us move our belongings from Missouri to Santa Ana CR. Answered all of our questions and was honest. We are just now waiting for our container to go through customs. My number one advice while doing the container is, do not add electronics because customs will take a longer time.

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

Thanx for the testimonial.... :)

[@elisawilloughby7477]

Thanks for your testimony We are planning to move from Colorado to Rivas . Any advice?

[@elisawilloughby7477]

Mil gracias Pablo y Michael por toda esta Valiosa information

[@smokenjoe4022]

This is the best video on moving to and retiring in Costa Rica that I’ve seen! Custom’s seems very petty who are they protecting with you can’t bring this or that, I understand the fresh food with insects but be on that is BS! Thanks I’ve decided against Costa Rica!!

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

Wow, thank you!

[@jay27064]

CR customs is very petty and corrupt. Its all about relationships, connections, and who you know in Costa Rica or you pay a person with the connections. Just make sure its the right person.

[@shedricstaley2178]

You are so right about finding good people down there that are willing to help! I will DEFINITELY be patronizing this man when I close up shop here and head to Gunacaste in the VERY near future! Thank you again for amazingly helpful information!

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

You are very welcome.

[@7lucerob]

So much quality information!! Thanks for all the relevant & informative content!! GREAT video!! BIG THANKS to Pablo too!!

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

Our pleasure! thanx.

Great video, Another way. I am 75 to make it the simplest move possible. Have a Garage/Estate sale. Pack two suitcases. Buy a ticket and come here. I sold everything that would not fit in my luggage and rented an Air b&b. 4 months later found a fantastic house in San Rafael, Heredia, and bought it. Pura Vida.

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

exactly that😊

[@mojavemadness5334]

So glad you made this vid. We are moving down to Los Suenos next April and after watching this, looks like we will be starting from scratch. Thanks again for the info.

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

Good luck!!

[@dss9775]

Excellent interview. I am sailing over to Costa Rica on my small boat. 😊⛵️

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

what do you consider small... ;)

[@sandrabedard7848]

I'm happy you have a good shipping person. We were referred to a nightmare shipping company and it was a total nightmare and 5 months later with almost double the price quoted later our belongings arrived mostly everything broken and missing many items. 😢. We would not do it again. However I can say, finding the RIGHT COMPANY is crucial!! Both our person that referred us and the horrible company we had we washed our hands of them . Found out they both worked for each other TOTAL SCAMMERS !!!Our items were held for more and more $$$. We almost said KEEP it. I wish we knew about your guy Michael 1 year ago

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

Yes, when it goes South...it goes WAY SOUTH in an ugly way. Sorry you had to go through that.

[@mariodarg3560]

maybe a name? so no body else goes thru this....

[@markbarton8872]

Michael, thanks again. This may be the single most complicated issue that an expat like me is going to get involved in. It is without a doubt the most daunting part of the move. After seeing this my list of possessions that are coming, just gets smaller. One of the things you encourage us to bring are our computers cell phones and power tools. I have a significant group of battery powered tools and other tools I want to bring. Are battery powered tools considered electronics?

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

nope. tools. Yeah, it is a bit complicated.... but that's why we have Pablo ;)

[@kandyman2705]

All your videos are very informative but this might be you’re best. When I move in October, think I’ll just take whatever I can take on the plane.

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

That's how we did it. ;)

Kind hard to hide that you're gring when you're shipping. Got to eat that one. Thanks for all the helpful info. Am in CR right now used Adobe on your recommendation.

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

you are very welcome. Luckily, Pablo doesn't care if you are gringo or not.

THANKS MICHAEL... Need to find out if you can ship electric cars and bikes to Costa Rica without the import tax... cause the country is trying to get off fossil fuel

[@Kattywagon29]

So, just to clarify, can I move to Costa Rica and just bring like 10-15 suitcases/boxes/plastic containers full of my stuff? I'm not sure how declaration work that way. For instance, I would consider myself a gamer and as such, when I move, I am going to bring my Switch, my PS4, my Xbox, my computer and monitors as well as my laptop and Ipad. Is that going to be a problem? I have Magic the Gathering Cards and Dungeons and Dragons stuff that would get ruined sitting around in a hot storage area waiting on customs to do their thing.

[@adenisell]

Thank you for your awesome informative videos❤️. So we are now moving out of CR to Dominican Republic. Do you recommend a shipping Co. for moving out?

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

Pablo works from ports all over the world..... if he doesn't do DR, I'm sure he could point you in the right direction.

[@bevtrue6937]

He said ALL THAT in one breath. Haha.

[@TravelCostaRicaNOW]

I know, right.

[@jay27064]

And he really didn't even talk about importing cars.

[@bevh4408]

I was hoping Pablo would address a side issue….simply how to have small goods from Amazon shipped to CR…where can I pick up that sort of incoming good..are there companies that accept and hold Amazon and other type of incoming goods from manufacturers? Post office? Special companies?

[@mildredgonzalez5256]

Hi Michael, my husband and I are considering moving to Costa Rica. We would love to get in touch with Pablo. Can you help with that? Thanks, Millie

[@Deni-zj8ck]

Is it still better to ship car or buy one in Costa Rica?

[@seanmurphy5540]

Has anyone brought table saws, generators, etc to Costa Rica. Will that be covered under the $150,000 investment as far as bringing a container? I would have fewer household items but more tools, battery powered tools,etc.

[@sandels366]

How do I get a hold of them?

[@Marilyn-pv8hr]

How do I contact Pablo?

[@canadiancinderelly3518]

I've heard about how cartels in Mexico make you pay a "tax" to whomever operates your demographic area if you set up business. Is this EVERYWHERE in Latin America? I've so wanted to do business in Mexico, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Ecuador :(

[@romyenglish]

That's bullshit

[@jay27064]

Every country has different regulations, different situations by industry and area. If you are trying to open a bar in San Jose area, I guarantee one or another local or international mafia is going to be asking for protection money and the police will want you to pay them to protect your business as well. And trying to conduct business in Costa Rica as a foreigner is very difficult to impossible depending on the industry. You will need to incorporate if you are not a resident or citizen and if you are not a resident or citizen you don't exist to declare taxes, or do a lot of business that requires you to have a cedula or DIMEX number. You will constantly either have to havexTico employees or create powers of attorney for people to file on your behalf.

@@TravelCostaRicaNOW Hey Michael, thnx for getting back to me. I'm coming in Aug. for a month, it'd be great to talk to you. I read so many things about moving but it's varying opinions which is making things very confusing! I'm 65 and have limited funds so I need to do this right. I would love to find a home to purchase in Uvita area or surrounding.
