Question

Am I able to have dual citizenship in Costa Rica and the U.s.?

Answer 1

Yes, you can but, you have to have a steady job at least.

Answer 2

Yes., only if you fit into one of these two scenarios: if you were born to Costa Rican citizen in the U.S. you have Dual Citizenship by birth. If you were born to U.S. citizens in Costa Rica you have Dual Citizenship by birth. Go to the nearest Cost Rican Consulate office and see what paper you have to fill out and what requirements you need.

Answer 3

The US allows you to have dual citizenship with any other country (Spain doesnt!!) provide you qualify for it. Example:

-If you are from american parents and are born in Costa Rica.

- If you are from Costa Rica and are born in the US.

- If you are from Costa Rica and you marry an american.

-If you're american and marry a Costarican.

- If you are a legal immigrant (from Costa Rica) and are granted citizenship.
