Online Gambling in Costa Rica + Casinos List

Gambling in Costa Rica. There are a lot of misconceptions about what is legal and what is not, so let's take a look at the laws that govern gambling in this Central American country.

The most common misconception people have when it comes to gambling law in Costa Rica is that all forms of casino gambling are illegal. This isn't true - poker and sports betting are allowed by the government as long as they're regulated by state authorities (and casinos).

On top of that, even though online gambling is prohibited without a local license, there are hundreds of international online casinos that accept players from Costa Rica.

Moreover, there are no legal precedents of people being penalized fro playing online at casinos.
