Therefore, who knows if the country will consider enacting gambling regulation laws in the near future?

Are There Any Live Casinos in Costa Rica?

Costa Rica boasts hundreds of registered live casinos in operation despite the lack of a gambling regulatory body. All the operators need is a power of attorney and statutory documents for company establishment. With no gaming licenses to be acquired, the country is an attractive market for casino operators. That said, it is upon the country's citizens to look for reputable casinos where they can enjoy safe gambling.
