About the Costa Rican Embassy in Vienna
The embassy is currently led by Ana Marcela Calderon Garbanzo as Chargée d’affaires ad interim since June 2026; no ambassador is listed at the moment. Vienna is also a UN headquarters city, and Costa Rica maintains a permanent mission to the United Nations and other international organisations in Vienna. Consular requests belong to the embassy, not to that mission.

The exact list of documents depends on your case; the embassy confirms it on request.
