Driving in Costa Rica
Tourists can drive with a license from their home country as long as their passport entry stamp is s valid. If you have a work permit or residency, then you can more than likely use your license until it expires. However, you should go to the Ministry of Transport to obtain a Costa Rican license.
You must present your valid license and a 'medical' exam (which you should readily pass if you have a heartbeat and are not legally blind!). If your license is expired you must pass the medical exam and a driving test, but do not have to take the written exam.
