Costa Rican health insurance and tourist visa length

Costa Rican health insurance and tourist visa length - Grayscale Photography of Man Wearing Camera

Costa Rica requires all persons entering the country to:

  • have valid health insurance (that covers COVID-19)
  • provide an outbound ticket (either bus or plane)

Tourists visas are given to travellers for up to 90 days (at the discretion of the immigration officer)


I am travelling to Costa Rica with no set plans -- could be there for 60 days, could be there for 90.

Health insurance for 90 days is extremely expensive. Suppose I buy my outbound bus ticket for 10 days after I arrive (but don't intend to use it) -- does the health insurance I buy need to cover just those 10 days?
