Who is the legal representation service for?+
It is exclusively for international companies seeking to register and market products in Costa Rica without establishing a local office.
Are legal representation and technical regency the same service?+
No. Legal representation gives an international company a local presence before the authorities. Technical regency provides the professional direction and technical responsibility required for an animal-sector activity or establishment.
Who retains ownership of the registrations?+
The regulatory route is structured so the international company can retain ownership and control of its product registrations.
Which documents are required to begin?+
Requirements depend on the product and country of origin. We begin by reviewing the available technical information, certificates, labels and legal documents.
How long can a registration take?+
Timing varies according to the product, the quality of the file and any observations from the authority. After the initial assessment, we provide a clear roadmap and realistic estimate.
Can the entire process be managed from abroad?+
Yes. We support international companies with document preparation, submission, follow-up and maintenance of registrations in Costa Rica.
