United States citizens hoping to travel abroad to Costa Rica (or elsewhere) should get an early start on their passport application or renewal.

Costa Rica is among the named recipients of Covid-19 vaccines donated by the United States, the White House announced.

United States citizens with an expired passport may be able to use that document to return home throughout 2021, the U.S. State Department says.

Costa Rica is among the countries that has asked the United States for a donation of surplus vaccines.

Critics have accused the US of hoarding the vaccine, which is not authorized in the country and will likely not be required to vaccinate US Americans.

Apprehensions of undocumented migrants on the US border with Mexico soared 70% in March to 172,331, hitting the highest level in 15 years.

Costa Rican leaders on Wednesday congratulated Joe Biden as he was sworn in as the 46th President of the United States. 

US President Joe Biden called for unity and pledged to be a president for all Americans at his inauguration in Washington Wednesday, but warned of the challenges ahead as he takes on multiple crises.

The front pages of most major Costa Rican news outlets on Thursday highlighted the political violence at the United States Capitol.

Costa Rica trusts in the historical solidity of the democratic institutions of the United States of America, as well as in the deep feeling of respect for the rule of law.
