🚨 SPECIAL EDITION 🚨CR's Capital Gains Rules

There is a lot of confusion about Costa Rica’s capital gains exemption.

“It’s my house, so I’m exempt.”“The notary can fix it.”“I’m not domiciled, so I don’t pay.”

Not so fast.

The exemption for a primary residence is real — but it is narrower than many people think. Ownership structure matters. Corporate titles matter. “Indubitable” proof matters. And if it’s done incorrectly, problems can surface later.

If you own property here — or plan to sell — this is a must-read.

Clarity protects you. And it protects the next owner.

🏡🇨🇷 Do You Owe Costa Rica’s Luxury Tax?

Many property owners think they do—but most don’t.

✅ What actually triggers the tax
✅ Common misconceptions we see every year
✅ How construction value (not market value) is calculated

This guide explains it clearly, calmly and is based on how the system actually works.
