The legislature found it necessary to enact an act to combat such crimes and further assist the prevention thereof. As a general rule, RICA prohibits the interception and monitoring of direct and indirect communications. However, there are certain exceptions, including where the interception and monitoring takes place with the consent of the parties involved or where it is carried out by law enforcement personnel in certain circumstances. RICA assists the investigation, detection and prevention of crime by law enforcement officers and agencies.
The schedule to RICA lists the different kinds of crimes the Act aims to combat which include, amongst others, high treason, sedition, fraud and money laundering. RICA sets out circumstances under which law enforcement personnel may apply to a designated Judge of a High Court for an interception and monitoring direction and entry warrants, and the manner in which such directions and entry warrants are to be executed.
For example, RICA requires that all customers on all the cellular networks in South Africa should register all new and existing cellular phone numbers and to provide to their service providers all information required by the Act.
The information collected from customers should be verified in order to enable the TSP to identify that particular customer, should it become necessary for the TSP to do so. ECSP are also under an obligation to verify the information collected in terms of RICA, the information collected must be recorded and stored; and the facility in or on which the information is recorded and stored, must be secure and only accessible to persons specifically designated by that ECSP.

The perpetual tourist border runs that many expats use for the first year or two cannot be used to work legally. There are a number of options to obtain temporary residency in Costa Rica but none of the temporary statuses permit foreigners to work. There are two statuses that allow people from other countries to work in Costa Rica. The first is permanent resident which takes several years of bureaucratic red tape and thousands of dollars in legal fees to obtain.
The second is naturalized citizen which require permanent residency plus fluency in Spanish, passing a history test and some more red tape and legal fees. Exceptions to the residency requirements may be made on a case by case basis when employers require unique skill sets and education impossible to find in the Costa Rican workforce. In fact Costa Rica has a highly educated bilingual workforce that can probably fulfill any job requirements except 15 years management experience at a U.
Now the good news. Speaking English combined with a bachelors degree in science or education may qualify you to teach the kids of the Amazon and Pepsi execs in private school.
