Certificates of Free Sale from the Ministry of Health
The Certificate of Free Sale (CLV) is the document issued by the Ministry of Health through which the health authority certifies that the product declared in it is sold freely in Costa Rica, given that it complies with all the respective sanitary standards for its commercialization. The CLV is part of the requirements to be presented by the importer in the destination country to process the nationalization of the product when so established.
Through the VUCE system, exporters can purchase and process the CLV required for products destined outside the Central American Customs Union.
