Where the records of Costa Rica are, who holds them, and what it costs to look. 9,010,664 indexed records reachable through FamilySearch alone.

Where to start in Costa Rica

Nothing here has been checked for what it costs to look. On top of that, 9 worldwide services reach Costa Rica without a subscription.

1 more institution is listed here and has never been checked — nobody has opened it, written to it, or found out what it holds. They are on the map as grey because that is what they are, and the honest reading of this page is 0 known-open, 1 unknown.

Write to National Archives of Costa Rica for what is not online. FamilySearch has 7 collections covering it, running 1595–2023, 9,010,664 indexed records. No jurisdiction region covers Costa Rica yet, so this atlas cannot say whose archive held this ground in a given year — and it will not guess.

48 places placed, 0 volumes walked. Not one of them has had its paper counted yet, so treat the shelf here as a list of somewhere to look rather than a list of what survives. Open Costa Rica on the map, or tell us what is missing.

The archives

  • National Archives of Costa Rica unsurveyed Costa Rica

    National Archives of Costa Rica — national archive of Costa Rica. Promoted so the country has somewhere to write to at all; its address was opened and nothing else about it has been checked, including whether it holds anything genealogical.

And 12 worldwide providers reach Costa Rica too — the full list.

7 FamilySearch collections

Grouped by the ground each one covers, nationwide. A free account opens the images; some are restricted to a Family History Centre.
