Local accounts in Costa Rica
Costa Rica issues IBANs with the country code CR followed by 20 characters, a 22-character total in which the two check digits are followed by the bank code and the account number; banks also use the local bank-account number and SINPE-linked identifiers (such as the mobile number or ID number) for everyday transfers.
Payments in Costa Rica
The Banco Central de Costa Rica operates the Sistema Nacional de Pagos Electrónicos (SINPE), whose SINPE Móvil service moves funds instantly between bank accounts keyed to a mobile phone number and is the dominant everyday person-to-person rail, the RTGS handles high-value settlement through the national banking system, and the regulated banking sector also serves US-dollar accounts given the economy's close US ties.

Before you sign up in San José

Banks and financial entities must be authorised and supervised by the Superintendencia General de Entidades Financieras (SUGEF), while the Banco Central de Costa Rica regulates the national payment systems and registers payment service providers, including operators of SINPE-connected services. Confirm the provider's SUGEF authorisation or BCCR registration before holding colón balances with it. Ask what company documents the provider needs for a business registered in Costa Rica.
