Why are Zoning Certificates important?

In Costa Rica, each owner can give a use to his property as authorized by the urban regulations of each Municipality, which establish the possibilities of development in a property based on its location and its particularities.

When is a Zoning Certificate required?

It is of utmost importance before acquiring a piece of land, to verify if the project you have in mind is per the permitted Zoning Certificate; For, example, a piece of land may not be of a commercial nature and therefore, if acquired, it may not be possible to obtain a commercial patent, which is necessary for such exploitation. Likewise, the use of land is necessary for the issuance of the Sanitary Operating Permits and Commercial Patents that all businesses must have, as well as to obtain the Construction Permits to start work.
