A. Yes, a foreigner has the same rights to own property in Costa Rica as do citizens. The ownership rights are guaranteed by the Costa Rican constitution and apply regardless of whether the property is placed in the name of a corporation or in the name of an individual. Citizenship, residence and presence in the country is not required for land ownership.
