Practical planning questions for work connected to Costa Rica
This guide starts technical discovery. It does not replace project-specific legal, tax, accounting, privacy, accessibility, sanctions, export, or regulatory advice.
Questions to answer
- Costa Rican Spanish and any English-language customer journey required for international audiences.
- CRC and USD display rules, payment providers, refunds, deposits, reconciliation, and client-approved invoicing inputs.
- Personal-data handling, vendors, consent, notices, retention, access, and incident response.
- Mobile use, accessibility, international SEO, seasonality, and support-hour expectations.
Language and localization
Define the language used for contracts, meetings, technical documentation, support, and user-facing content. Localized copy should be reviewed by a person who understands the audience, terminology, tone, and subject matter. Machine translation can assist drafting but should not be treated as certified or automatically publication-ready.
Privacy and data
Document what information is collected, why it is needed, who can access it, which vendors process it, where it may travel, how long it is retained, and how corrections, exports, deletion, incidents, and applicable user rights are handled.
Faith Forge Labs can implement client-approved technical requirements and document testing. Applicability and legal conclusions remain with the client and qualified advisers.
Payments and commerce
Define currency display, price ownership, approved tax and invoicing inputs, providers, settlement, refunds, disputes, fulfilment, subscriptions, reconciliation, failed states, and support responsibilities.
Accessibility and usability
Set a target before design and testing. Include keyboard use, screen-reader structure, focus states, contrast, errors, labels, mobile interaction, and representative testing when appropriate.
Official sources
Use current official sources as research starting points. Recheck them for the actual service, audience, location, vendor, and launch date. Record who decides what applies.
