Hi all! When I was in Central America, I wrote a number of informative posts, but I did not have time to publish them on the blog. Then I began to actively ride around Europe, and it was more interesting to talk about the countries of the European Union. But lately, people have been increasingly contacting me with questions about traveling in Nicaragua, Panama and other Honduras, so I decided that there will be posts, then I will answer the questions of traveling citizens with a link to the corresponding blog article. Anything is more convenient than writing the same thing every time. Useful practical information there is not so much in Latin America in Runet, maybe that's why few people go there for a long time, so I will increase the literacy of the population. :D
p.s. Please don't say that people don't go to Latina because they don't have the money to do so. The fullness of Asian beaches indicates the opposite, and the price difference is not so significant, and no one has canceled ticket sales;)

Today I'll tell you about moving panama costa rica by land. There are several options for crossing the border of these countries, we crossed from the Caribbean coast, as we were traveling from Panama. I must say right away that I am not a fan of buying some kind of transfers, shuttles and other things from travel agencies, but in this case the shuttle was worth its 25$ more than ever. So what is a transfer?

First of all, from Bocas del Toro on a boat you sail up to (20-30 minutes). There you transfer to a minibus (about 40 minutes to the border). At the border, you unload from the minibus with things, go into a small room, buy a Bocas del Toro sticker for 3$ . It's a must, they won't let you go without it.

Then you come to the window where grandfather is by hand !! rewrites your data in a journal, at the same time pawing your passport with dirty hands and chewing a bun. Everything, the exit stamp has been received, and now the bridge of death over the green river is waiting for you. It is better to hide the passport somewhere, otherwise it will fall out into the river with crocodiles. There are such holes in the bridge that you yourself can dive with all the goodness if you step inaccurately. This photo was taken from the Costa Rica side, here the bridge is patched up better than from the Panama side. It is immediately clear that Costa Rica loves and waits for its tourists:

Next is the window with the guys from Costa Rica, in which they issue an immigration card. You fill it out quickly, you give your passport out the window, you get a stamp. They don't ask for money. I had an annual Polish Schengen visa, valid for another 7 months from the date of entry into the country. I was slapped with a stamp for 30 days, although Timatic writes that Belarusians And Russians With Schengen to Costa Rica does not need a visa, and you can stay in the country until 90 days. Such injustice, well, figs with them. All the other guys from the bus were stamped for 90 days.

After that, we loaded into another minibus and drove merrily to Puerto Viejo past plantations with banana palms in blue bags. 40 kilometers, an hour on the road, and we are already splashing in the waters of the Caribbean!!! In total, the whole journey from Bocas del Toro to Puerto Viejo (Panama Costa Rica, respectively) took about 3 hours with the border crossing.

IMPORTANT! There is often information on the net that when crossing the border between Panama and Costa Rica by land, they require you to show a bus or plane ticket as proof that you plan to leave the country (in this case, Costa Rica), so many people buy fake bus tickets which are then not used. We were not asked for any tickets or proof of solvency, only a passport.

Panama

Balboa ( international designation- PAB), equal to 100 centissimo (centavos). The rate is pegged to the US dollar at a ratio of 1 balboa to $1. Balboa paper notes do not exist, their role is played by US dollars (the American currency was adopted as the official currency in 1904 and has a widespread free circulation).

All goods and services, including transportation costs and airport tax, must be paid in convertible pesos. CUC$ also represents most prices in tourist areas and resort areas, and change is often given in both types of local currency.​​

Weather, climate

Costa Rica and Panama

The climate in the country is subequatorial. Two seasons can be distinguished: dry - from December to April and rainy - from May to November. On the plateau average temperature during the whole year is about +20…+22 °C, and in mountainous areas can be released up to +10 °C (with possible frosts in winter). On the coast of the Caribbean Sea and in the south of the Pacific coast, the temperature fluctuates between + 27 ... + 33 ° C, there is practically no difference between day and night temperatures.

Cuba

The climate in Cuba is tropical trade winds.

The average air temperature in January is +19-21°С, in July - +30-35°С, the average annual temperature is kept at +26°С.

Throughout the year, there is high humidity, which, combined with high temperatures, requires some acclimatization, but on the coast, the heat is often tempered by constant winds. Precipitation falls up to 1500 mm per year, fairly evenly distributed over the seasons. The rainy season in Cuba lasts from May to August-October, the dry season is from September-November to April, but there are frequent changes in the weather, when the dry season is strong tropical downpour, and in rainy weather it is dry and sunny.

The average annual water temperature off the coast of Cuba does not fall below +24°C.

And Costa Rica is the modern leader among many countries for attractive immigration. Both countries are located in Central America, and are neighboring.

In fact, the countries have much in common, for example, access to Pacific Ocean And Caribbean coast. Also, these countries have recently become especially popular, as tourist destinations. Both countries have cool territories in mountainous regions and places on the coast with a tropical climate, where various diasporas of emigrants have concentrated and have already settled down.

How to choose and figure out where it is better to live, and which of these countries to choose?

These countries are similar to each other in many respects, and have recently been ranked among the top places in the ranking of "Best Places to Retire" among the countries of Central America. I would also like to say that Panama and Costa Rica have the same - a temperate tropical climate, modern living conditions at low cost, good health care and a number of all kinds of recreational activities. But even with such similarities, one can see the individual advantages of one country over another. In this article, we will review and compare the basic factors for successful living in each of these countries.

Providing home services

Both countries offer a variety of home improvement services. This includes: a caregiver for your children, a personal driver, a gardener, a caretaker and a maid who will work around the house and run errands for grocery shopping, dry cleaning or laundry. In Panama, you can get all these services for only $15 per day, based on a six-day work week. But despite the fact that in Costa Rica payment for such services may be higher, Costa Rica is still more attractive in this indicator. The fact is that in Costa Rica, despite slightly higher costs, the level of service is much higher than in Panama, so there is no need to spare a few dollars for the quality provided.

Connection

As for the provision of communication services, of course, the advantage is on the side of Panama. In Latin America, Panama occupies one of the leading places in this direction. Particularly noteworthy is the quality and prevalence of access to broadband Internet. Also throughout the country there are many points with the provision of free wireless Wi-Fi service. Panama was recently ranked second in Latin America for the level of Internet technology it provides and first in wireless access WiFi. Therefore, such well-known transnational companies as Philips, Dell and 3M decided to establish their headquarters in Panama.

In turn, Costa Rica will improve its capabilities in the Internet area and in last years increased Internet speed by 43% from the previous level. Today, the traffic speed is close to 2.1 Mbps, given that watching video requires a minimum of 1.5 Mbps, and in high quality HD needs 4 Mbps.

Accommodation options

The advantages of a particular country depend on the area that a person chooses to live, as well as other factors that influence the choice. In order not to list them all point by point, we will analyze the preferences of emigrants according to criteria such as climate, infrastructure and proximity to attractions. So the most popular mountain town in Costa Rica among expats from North America is Atenas, which is located in the Central Valley, surrounded by beautiful mountains. Here, throughout the year, moderate weather persists, the city is located near the capital of San Jose, where the largest concentration of immigrants. In turn, the city of Boquete in Panama offers conditions no worse than Atenas, one might even say better. The same coolness, only with better roads and infrastructure that allow you to easily and quickly get to various areas, from the foot of the volcano to the azure coast.

A city to live in, again you can give preference to Panama. The capital city of Panama City is a major cosmopolitan hub that caters to its residents, attracts tourists, and attracts international business and investment. Modern city offers a host of world-class shops, hotels, clubs and restaurants, as well as 650 acres (263.045 hectares) of rainforest within the city. The opposite is San Jose, Costa Rica, which is smaller in area and less attractive in terms of attractions for tourists.

public beaches

In this subheading, the advantage is on the side of Costa Rica, it lies in the correct approach of the governing bodies to the organization of services and the availability of the necessary beach infrastructure. For decades, expats and travelers have been coming to the coast of Costa Rica to bask in the sun, have fun and appreciate the level of service provided. In Panama, you can also find such places for recreation, especially Coronado, not far from the capital Panama City, can be distinguished, but I would like to note that the level of services and the arrangement of beaches leaves much to be desired, and is also clearly inferior to many cities on the coast of Costa Rica.

Holidays on the islands

In the "Islands" section, a comparison of both countries is inappropriate. The fact is that Costa Rica does not own big amount islands. There is the island of Kano, which offers an exceptionally calm environment among coral reefs and nothing else. Panama, on the other hand, provides an opportunity not only to relax on its untouched islands, but also allows you to choose many of them for purchase in private ownership. For example, the archipelago of the Boca Chica Islands provides private island 400 acres where you can buy your own piece of paradise, plots from five to fifty acres of island area are exhibited. The exhibited objects are located in close proximity to the coast of the mainland of the country and close to other attractive places Chiriqui region.

Green Zone

In Panama and Costa Rica, nature gave every chance so that people could live in harmony with the environment. But on this moment these chances are better used by Costa Rica, and Panama is clearly lagging behind. Over 25% of its territory, Costa Rica has declared National parks and fights against deforestation and environmental pollution. There is an understanding of the local population to protect the country's ecology. Electricity generation in Costa Rica is based on environmentally friendly technologies, accounting for 90% of all electricity production in the state.

Panama also has a lot of forests, but the difficulty is that these are sometimes hard-to-reach and remote areas. In terms of cleanliness of cities, Panama also has more disadvantages. Both countries have the opportunity to introduce their tourists to their rain jungles and mangroves, as well as offer their best places for scuba diving.

Living wage

Here I would like to highlight a small advantage of Panama. Compared to the cost of living in the US and Canada, Panama and Costa Rica look more rosy than their northern counterparts. Comparing them, one can see certain advantages of Panama in terms of consumer prices for many products and services. Of course, in the two states there are quite developed cities and regions where prices for rent, services and products are within the limits of North American countries, but still the costs differ downwards. It is known that in Costa Rica there is a very high tax on imports, it is very difficult to purchase many household goods and electronics. Car prices are also more expensive than in Panama, here is a list of some price points in Panama and Costa Rica:

  • Basic consumer prices in Panama are 10.35% lower than in Costa Rica.
  • The cost of rent is 71.24% higher than in Costa Rica.
  • Restaurant prices in Panama are 19.73% lower.
  • Prices in Panama for a group of food products are lower by 5.54%.
  • Purchase prices for food are 17.60% lower than in Costa Rica.

One of the many factors that attracts many expats to Panama is its Pensionado program. With certain guarantees of pension financing, the state provides discounts to emigrant pensioners living in its territory. These are discounts from 10 to 50% on various types of services and entertainment, such as health care, cinema visits, restaurants, hotel accommodation.

Transport connection

In order to get to one of these countries, you will need to decide on the destination and purchase a plane ticket. Transport links in Panama and Costa Rica are quite high. Panama stands out for the quality of reception and departures of international flights at Tocumen Airport. There are also a number of flights to various cities of Northern and South America, which allow Panama to provide access to hard-to-reach areas. Costa Rica has more developed flights to various areas of Central America, which creates many simplified options to get to the nearest popular tourist places region.

Business environment

The World Bank's international rankings for ease of doing business in 2014 ranked Panama 55 out of 189 countries. In 2015, the country's rating improved by 3 points and amounted to 52nd place. Costa Rica ranked 78th in 2014 and, according to the World Bank, has worsened its position, moving to 82nd place. Fitch Agency (New York) also in 2015 lowered the level of long-term foreign investment in Costa Rica to BB + and short-term to B. Conclusions were made about the slowdown in economic growth associated with problems of tax reform and increasing pressure on domestic investors, by increasing interest rates. Already by these indicators one can judge the business activity of these two countries. The government of Panama, especially in recent years, has adopted many different laws regulating relations between the state and foreign investors. To the international community, Panama is demonstrating real action in its legal reforms that bring the country closer to meeting international business standards. Costa Rica is a more bureaucratic country, where reform processes lag behind modern realities, so the country has higher taxes and fees.

Banking services

There will be fluctuations in the provision of banking services for a long time, this is due to various changes in the instructions, both in the United States and in Panama and Costa Rica. But according to North Americans, in recent years, banking services provided in Costa Rica have been better compared to Panama. Attention was focused on the procedure for opening a bank account and its maintenance. While both countries are meticulous about verifying a potential client's identity, income statements, and place of residence, Costa Rica's account opening requirements are far more attractive than Panama's. So, to open an account in Costa Rica, the minimum deposit requirement is 25 USD, and in Panama, the minimum deposit is 1000 USD. In addition, Panama banks may require a number of additional documents confirming the employment of the future client, as well as one or more letters of recommendation from banks that previously served the client. Here you need to understand the pros and cons of the differences. The currency of Costa Rica is the "colon", the rate of which today against the US dollar is: 1 USD = 535.70 CRC. In the event of a financial crisis in the country, there are large inflationary risks, and the Costa Rican colón may depreciate sharply, which will directly affect the financial system of Costa Rica. Panama uses "balboa", which is equal to the US dollar and does not print money, which is probably why Panamanian banks require additional documents when opening an account in order to avoid risks and weed out financially unreliable applicants in time.

investment incentive

To more realistically assess the advantages of one country over another, you can turn to the history of twenty years ago and analyze the events. More than twenty years ago, streams of emigrants from North America poured into Costa Rica, most of them were American pensioners. Costa Rica at that time attracted foreign retirees to live in the country, guaranteeing certain incentives that are no longer valid. Decades later, many retirees who moved to Costa Rica found it uncomfortable to live in the crowded society of their compatriots and other emigrants, and they began to turn their attention to neighboring country with the same climate - Panama. Also, for similar reasons, emigrants began to leave Mexico. Panama, in turn, did not lose its chance to attract foreign capital and created various laws that promote the development of the economy with the help of foreign investment. Emphasis was placed on attracting investments related to the development of tourism in the country, for which the state provides tax incentives and certain privileges. Panama is currently inviting pensioners from America and Europe.

There are various types of visas for obtaining a residence permit and obtaining citizenship, which are accompanied by benefits, determine the minimum amount of investment deposits in the country and the conditions of registration. After passing through the paperwork, emigrants in Panama have the opportunity to receive financing from a Panamanian bank, which they could not receive in Costa Rica.

healthcare

The level of health care in Costa Rica and Panama is quite high and inexpensive. At one time, health care in Costa Rica was touted internationally as " best country with an inexpensive medical program. The quality of Costa Rica's healthcare system is ranked 36th by the International Health Organization, with the United States ranked 37th. Both countries have a sufficient number of modern hospitals and clinics, where qualified doctors with knowledge in English who received their medical education in the US and Europe. Many medical institutions in Panama have world famous names, such as the Johns Hopkins Clinic, which is also in the United States. The disadvantage of Panama in this industry is that the location of medical facilities are mainly located in major cities, such as Panama City and David, it is problematic to get full medical care in rural areas and more remote places of the country.

Common consumption goods

As mentioned above, the cost of living in Costa Rica exceeds that of Panama. This is especially evident when buying consumer goods, products of such a group as groceries are 15-20% more expensive than in Panama. The level of tax on export goods is so high that it is sometimes impossible to find some of them in the store. The value added tax in Costa Rica is 14%, while in Panama it is only 7%. Panama also has several duty-free zones, which results in lower taxes. Panama can be called the center of trade Latin America, where many people come to buy cheaper equipment and electronics than in their own country.

Right to property

Panama in this paragraph is considered as an impeccable leader, because the state does not impose serious restrictions on property purchased by foreigners in its territory. Foreign corporations or individuals cannot buy property that is 10 kilometers from the border, there are also some restrictions regarding the coastal areas of Panama, where it is forbidden to build objects closer than 20 meters to the end of the tide, or special building permission from local authorities is possible . In all other respects, the rights of foreigners regarding the acquisition of property are no different from the rights local residents. The laws of Costa Rica can be said to be the opposite. Foreigners do not have the right to purchase land, and 95% of all the country's beaches are state-owned, which cannot be owned by foreign citizens if they have lived in Costa Rica for less than five years. There is an option to use the property if 49% of the property is owned by a Costa Rican corporation owned by a Costa Rican citizen from birth. So you can see that the process of buying a property is much easier in Panama and if you have a qualified real estate lawyer, you can simplify the process of buying and avoid possible missteps.
