Mail & Packages in Costa Rica

How to address mail

We strongly encourage students to tell their friends and family to not send them care packages, as the mail service can take a very long time and can generate expensive fees and customs takes.
 
For letters and post cards, students can have them sent to Veritas directly:
 
Student name
Universidad Veritas, CPI
1 Km al Oeste de Casa Presidencial
San José, Costa Rica
10105
 
Students can also mail letters and post cards from Veritas, or from one of the many post offices around the city. When sending mail don't forget to add "USA" to the address!
 
The closest post office is located here: (https://goo.gl/maps/fHbZ71QkbjRyuVgP9)
 
There is also a special mailing service which is used only for emergencies such as lost/stole credit cards. This information can be provided by Site Director Lisa Pinheiro in case the students need it.
