                  The answer is: It's fucking difficult to get bank accounts here, especially for online activity.

                        Sheesh.. start a new thread for this - this is crapped up!

                        Yea.. living here, tho WarChild is correct - Costa Rica is a place for living - not necessarily a place to be doing business.

                          Not that hard, but depends what you're doing. Costa Rica is definitely no offshore tax haven.

                            Agree! Just thinking... tho there are always workarounds - if ya actually operated a corp here and that showed profits - there are taxes due locally on these profits fuzebox?

                              You only pay taxes on money made from within the country. If your income comes from the USA you don't pay taxes on it. You do however have to file an earnings/assets report with the government and pay a filing fee of 1200 colones or something.

                              My experience with the banks here though is that because of so many years of money laundering and stuff (especially when the online casinos were bigger here), they don't hand out international debit cards easily, making it kind of useless as a foreign bank.

                                  Yea.. forgot about the geo-taxation element! Tho was wondering if the other implications eg... ya operate a CR corp and the costs of employee stuff kick in. It's prop easier keeping a corp out of the country and just pull funds in without taxation. (But.. hell - there are also plenty folks here who are
                                  more than capable in IT related and could do with a job.)

                                  I'm always surprised the "fuss" over corp filings I get from lawyers here - yet come payup time, it's peanuts they talk about Eg .. your filing fee amounts :-)

                                  Yea.. noticed that about banks - it's not really a banking location. It's a nice play to live and do biz elsewhere!
