Do I need to pay a departure tax to leave Costa Rica?

Yes, the departure tax for short-term visitors is currently $29. From 3 December 2014, you may no longer need to line up and pay this at the airport, it may be included in your airfare – please check with your agent. Tourists who stay over ninety days without receiving a formal extension can expect to pay a higher departure tax at the airport or land border.
