Covid-19 Travel Requirements: Costa Rica opened its borders for tourists back in November. The country is currently not requiring a negative Covid-19 test, however, all visitors should fill out a Health Pass before traveling to receive a QR code that they must show upon arrival.
A valid travel insurance covering potential quarantine accommodation costs up to $2,000 and medical expenses of at least $50,000 related to covid-19 is also required to enter Costa Rica. The travel insurance must be accompanied by a certificate in English or Spanish showing details such as the policyholder’s name, the dates of coverage, and guarantees as specified above.
Suggestions of insurers can be found on the Health Pass website.
America’s CDC classes the risk in Costa Rica as “very high” and says US citizens should “avoid all travel to Costa Rica.” It also states that even fully vaccinated travelers are at risk of catching variants.
