Many people considering Rentista residency believe they must transfer $60,000 to Costa Rica before they can begin the process. That is not always the case.
Applicants must demonstrate stable monthly income of at least $2,500 for two years. When that income comes from the United States, the initial proof may be issued by a U.S. bank, allowing the application to be prepared before the full amount is transferred to Costa Rica.
