Sending Packages between Countries

This is regulated by international treaties.

It is easy to send a package from Costa Rica to the US. But not easy to send a package from the US to Costa Rica. Why I do not know, but these are the facts, strange as they seem.

Mail is handled differently, and more reasonably. It can be sent to any address down here, such as a Post Office Box, which is convenient, because home addresses are long, and occupy many lines.

Companies such as Aeropost have addresses in the US that you can send your packages to. They then fly them to Costa Rica, run them through Customs, deliver them to a local address, and charge you a hefty sum for doing all this.
