How can I send a package to a post office box in costa rica? |
Travel Info I don't have a physical address to ship to, just a P.O. box number in Alajuela. Travel Tips In addition to what others have said, I would make sure not to declare it to be worth a lot. They will meticulously inspect it if it is declared to be worth a lot and also probably charge you huge tariffs especially if it is a large package. A family friend in Costa Rica was mailed a Christmas ornament from her mom and customs in Costa Rica declared it to be a car part and charged her (huge) tariffs as such. Others Go to the post office. they will mail anything(almost) to anywhere in the world. You can send it to a PO box the same way you send anything. (Name of individual) Apartado (PO box number you have) Alajuela San Jose, Costa Rica "Apartado" means "post office box". So just address it as so, and it should send just fine :-) The APDO (PO BOX) will work. When you go to the post office to send it you will have to fill out a form for Customs stating what is in the package. Depending what it is as to wether or not it will go thru Customs. Easiest if you say it is used whatever it is. Or a present Just mail it like you would mail it to any other P.O. box, write the name of the person, and instead of "P.O. Box" write: Apartado Postal (and the number) Alajuela, Costa Rica that's it! (don't write "San Jos茅". Alajuela is a province, so is San Jos茅, it's not the same area...) Good luck! P.D.: they're gonna ask you what's in the box. |
