View SpecificationsCosta Rica is a global model for environmental sustainability. Under the national framework of the Plan Nacional de Descarbonización (National Decarbonization Plan 2018-2050), the country aims to transform its transport sector to achieve net-zero carbon emissions. Given that Costa Rica generates over 99% of its electricity from renewable resources—principally hydroelectric, geothermal, wind, and solar systems—the decarbonization of vehicular assets delivers immediate and absolute reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Transitioning to electric drivetrains means vehicles run on truly clean, green energy.
In addition, Costa Rica has passed Law 9518 (Incentives and Promotion for Electric Transportation). This legislation offers extensive fiscal benefits, including exemptions from selective consumption tax, property tax discounts, and municipal parking privileges. These initiatives have catalyzed significant market demand for B2B fleet electrification, agricultural logistics, and urban commuter passenger solutions.
Global new energy automotive leader BYD provides the ideal product platform to drive this transition. In partnership with Shandong Li Mao Tong Group, BYD's advanced engineering meets comprehensive supply chain integration, regional homologation support, and localized distribution networks.

We use this operational model to support our distribution networks in Central America, shipping vehicles through the Port of Caldera and the Port of Limón to ensure prompt customs clearance and vehicle delivery to Costa Rican buyers.
Importing electric passenger and commercial vehicles into Costa Rica requires compliance with specific regulatory steps. All vehicles must be homologated by the Ministerio de Obras Públicas y Transportes (MOPT) to confirm compliance with national safety and environmental requirements.
Additionally, vehicles must match the local charging infrastructure standards. Costa Rica has established the CCS2 (Combined Charging System Type 2) standard for fast DC charging and Type 2 for AC charging. Our exported BYD vehicles are configured with compatible charging ports to work with the country's growing public charging network (Grupo ICE and private networks).
Shandong Li Mao Tong Group manages the export shipping process directly from major Chinese ports (such as Qingdao and Shanghai). We coordinate transport through major shipping lines to Costa Rican import terminals:
We supply complete documentation, including bill of lading, commercial invoice, certificate of origin, and battery safety data sheets. This documentation helps prevent delays during customs clearance, ensuring vehicles reach your site promptly.
