Luxury Tax on Houses

in Costa Rica

New tax on property

 

 

 

 

 

January 15, 2010, the due date for Costa Rica's new luxury tax on homes, has come and gone.

At this time, there is a lot of confusion and discussion about options for people who should have filed but missed the deadline.

We are actively investigating the question and will post information here as it is made available and clarified.
