Costa Rica Prohibited and Restricted Items
FedEx Cross Border is unable to ship prohibited and non-approved restricted items on behalf of its customers.
FedEx Cross Border has prepared a global list of prohibited and restricted items that apply regardless of a shipment's destination. In addition to these global prohibitions and restrictions, individual countries or territories may impose further prohibitions or restrictions on the importation of certain items.
