In October 2023, the Costa Rican authorities requested support from the EU AML/CFT Global Facility in the development of a programme for technical assistance on Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing.

A number of working meetings and discussions took place between the EU Global Facility experts and the partner state’s representatives, which led to the development of a comprehensive workplan, specifically targeted at the Costa Rican Notary Sector. The first technical assistance activities were launched online in January 2024.
