Visa & Entry

German passport holders can enter Costa Rica visa-free for up to 90 days. Your passport must be valid for at least 1 day beyond your planned departure date. That is an unusually lenient requirement compared to most countries. Bring a return or onward ticket and proof of at least USD 100 per month of your planned stay.

There is no option to extend the 90-day stay from inside Costa Rica. The standard workaround is a short trip to Panama or Nicaragua and re-entering. Immigration technically requires 72 hours outside the country before re-entry, though enforcement is inconsistent.

Costa Rica charges a departure tax of USD 29, which is usually included in your airline ticket price. Check your booking to avoid paying twice at the airport.

Getting to FRA

S-Bahn lines S8 and S9 run from Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof (main station) to Terminal 1 every 15 minutes (15 min, €5.65 single or included in a Frankfurt day ticket). ICE and IC long-distance trains serve the airport's own long-distance station (Fernbahnhof); this is separate from the S-Bahn Regional station and connects Frankfurt to Cologne, Stuttgart, Munich, and other cities without requiring travel through the city centre.Taxis from the city centre cost €25–35 and take 15–25 minutes. Terminal 2 connects to Terminal 1 via the free SkyLine people mover.
