(These are actual official looking buildings).<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Park near the end towards immigration.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go first to the Bancomar to export your car. They will want your sticker that you placed inside your car. Bring all your import car paperwork.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">The Bancomar guy will take a picture of your van, look at the VIN number, give you a receipt for your deposit back, and then you are done with him.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">If you did not remember your FMA receipt from the initial visa you will have to pay another M$280 for paperwork to get out, if you have your FMA receipt from the bank (not the passport visa) you don\u2019t need to buy this. If you do not have it, buy at the Bancomar place prior to going to immigration.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go to immigration, the office is right outside on the left.\u00a0 They will look at your passport, ask for your FMA receipt, stamp your passport book, and you are done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Guatemala Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">As soon as you drive across the border, which is about 5 meters from immigration, park right in front of the RV (yes, not so official on this side).\u00a0 Go into this office (Aduana), give them the originals and copy of driver\u2019s passport and title (or registration).<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">They will send you to the RV directly behind them \u2013 to immigration.\u00a0 Here they will stamp your passport.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Back to Aduana.\u00a0 They will look at the stamped passport book. Then send you for the import fee.\u00a0 Money changers next door will give you a pretty fair deal especially if you know the exchange rate.\u00a0 We needed 180 Quetzales for import fee for the car.\u00a0 Insurance was not required.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">They sprayed the car for a small fee as well.\u00a0 Then done.\u00a0 Fairly easy border.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\">We arrived exactly at 9 am, when the border opened on Sunday only to have the Bancomar guy be late :D.\u00a0 So we waited for about 45 minutes.\u00a0 With our bad Spanish it took a moment to figure out the prerequisites needed, but they were patient with us and we got through fairly well.\u00a0 I had unfortunately misplaced my FMA receipt so we ended up repaying for mine but I was able to find Eric\u2019s.\u00a0 But with all the hassle we still finished the border up by 11am.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Border: Guatemala \u2013 El Salvador<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p2\">Sunday, March 9, 2014<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Guatemala Side: La Hachadura<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">This border you might run into a line of stopped semi-trucks, drive around them.\u00a0 \u201cHelpers\u201d might come and try to help you; they will do so for a fee.\u00a0 I prefer to not use them, especially since they don\u2019t necessarily know more than we do after researching it on-line.\u00a0 Don\u2019t be worried about going around the semi\u2019s \u2013 they are in a different line than people crossing as tourists. They do not get upset.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Park at right hand side of blue building \u2013 go to immigration for the exit stamp.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Walk to 1<sup>st<\/sup> building with \u201cIngreso\u201d on it, here they will cancel you permit paper.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>El Salvador Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Park next to immigration on the Right.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Get the passports stamped at immigration which is the first office outside.\u00a0 They will not actually stamp your passport, but they will enter a bunch of stuff into the computer.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Next go to the Aduana office, just a little further down in the same building.\u00a0 Approach the counter and give over your cancelled permit paper, a copy of driver\u2019s passport, and title with originals.\u00a0 He will enter a bunch of things on a form and inspect the car.\u00a0 He asked us how many computers we had, how many surfboards, how many cylinders the car was, etc. Then he entered this in a computer while we sat in chairs waiting for him.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">He handed us back the originals and vehicle permit.\u00a0 No money was paid.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">We were not required to buy insurance at this border.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\">*Some blogs noted that there might be a $5 exit fee and sometimes insurance around $10.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Border: El Salvador \u2013 Honduras<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p2\">Sunday, March 16, 2014<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>El Salvador Side: El Amatililo<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">*Note: Some blogs noted that you can be asked on the Honduras side at inspection for proof of warning triangles, fire extinguisher, and spare tire.\u00a0 We bought some triangles at the gas station right before the border.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Again drive around semis. \ud83d\ude00<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Before we got to the official buildings we were stopped at a checkpoint by a man in a white shirt \u2013 very official looking, standing next to a booth.\u00a0 This was apparently the Aduana booth.\u00a0 (On the right side of the road).\u00a0 They wanted 1 copy of permit without stamp. They took our permit and stamped it.\u00a0 Then they needed 3 copies of permit with stamp.\u00a0 So we went across the road to get copies.\u00a0 Gave it back to the official, who will stamp it, check VIN then done here.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Drive approximately 3K to official building and take a LEFT!!! (Do not go the obvious way with all the semis.\u00a0 You will arrive at an official border building.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Immigration building \u2013 stamp out.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Need a copy of vehicle permit w\/ stamp for checkpoint.\u00a0 They will review this and your passport.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Honduras Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">You will reach another checkpoint before you get to the border buildings.\u00a0 The official will want originals and copies <span class=\"s1\">of title, license, driver\u2019s passport<\/span>.\u00a0 Then he might try to escort you to Aduana\u2019s.\u00a0 They won\u2019t do anything with you until you go to immigration first.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Drive forward, park in front of large building on the left.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go to immigration in the right building.\u00a0 Grab a paper at the window to fill out while you are waiting in line.\u00a0 Need one per person. Stamp is $3 pp.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Next go to Aduana in the left building.\u00a0 She inspected our car first \u2013 VIN # only.\u00a0 She asked for all the specs like make, model, year, liters, cylinders. We were told they would ask us for extinguisher, triangles, and spare tire; but she did not do this.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Then back to the office window while she typed things in the computer and we filled out a customs form.\u00a0 (This took a long time for us as she refused to do anything quickly, answering her cell phone for a chat with a friend and then ordering something over the phone as well).\u00a0 She then gave us a print out of vehicle permit (make 4 copies of this).<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">You will need for Aduana\u2019s 3 copies of the following: <span class=\"s1\">vehicle permit, driver\u2019s passport stamp, registration or title, driver passport, driver license, copies of a receipt of payment (paid her for permit)<\/span>.\u00a0 She will make all the copies into 3 packets. She will keep 2, 1 will be given away at the checkpoint.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Border: Honduras \u2013 Nicaragua<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">*<\/span>We did the border crossing from El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua in one day.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t bad.\u00a0 On the Honduras side, we got just enough money changed over for a nice pizza at Little Caesar\u2019s Pizza before we got to the Nicaragua border.\u00a0 Some blogs noted that there were as many as 14 police checkpoints, we did not run into any but again we crossed on Sunday, which seems to be a magical day for us.\u00a0 The Honduras side was warned to be a little sketchy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Guasaule, Honduras<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Official\/police will ask to see vehicle permit, and then wave you forward, STAY LEFT.\u00a0 Drive past the sketchy buildings to the back, where there are 2 grey buildings.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go to immigration: stamp out<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Walk around directly behind immigration in the building to a door that requires you to pull a rope in order to enter. (A guard let us in) This is Aduana\u2019s.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Cancel permit \u2013 they will keep original and mark stamp in passport.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Nicaragua Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">*Stay right while driving<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Semis again \u2013 you know what to do.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Fumigation $3 and keep the receipt (sometimes it is not open apparently)<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Park outside of grey building. Go into the first door to immigration \u2013 get visas $10 pp tourist card fee, $2 tax pp.\u00a0 (There is an ATM here that gives out Cordobas, but it wasn\u2019t working when we were there.) They will give you a receipt, keep it just in case.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Then Aduana office for vehicle permit. They will need originals\/copy of <span class=\"s1\">driver\u2019s passport and title<\/span>. They will inspect car and check VIN.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Last checkpoint will ask for all paperwork and receipts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\">Run for the hills and cold beers after doing all these borders.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Border: Nicaragua \u2013 Costa Rica<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p2\">Sunday, March 23, 2014<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Nicaragua Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">You will get stopped at a check point; they will check everyone\u2019s passport.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Give the vehicle permit to another man at this check point, they will scribble on it and hand it back.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Drive to set of buildings ahead and turn left \u2013 drive past customs\/immigration and park.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go to the Exit immigration window and pay $1 pp exit tax, proceed to immigration window in the same building.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">At immigration window, fill out your tourist card and take extras for Costa Rica :D. Pay another $2 fee and keep receipt.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Head across the street to a window marked Aduana.\u00a0 This is to the left of the Duty Free shop but in the same building. This man will take your vehicle permit and give you a customs form to fill out.\u00a0 He will stamp and sign this.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">He will then have you go get your car inspected by a guy wandering around in a white shirt with a DGA logo.\u00a0 He will stamp and sign your customs form after looking at your VIN.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Then lastly go back across the street to the immigration building and enter at the left side for a police officer to sign your customs sheet.\u00a0 They also may be wandering about.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Keep the customs sheet for the checkpoint. They will take the \u201coverly stamped\u201d customs sheet and keep it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\">*Note: we were sent to the police too soon and he signed and stamped the wrong thing, then told us we were done.\u00a0 It seems best if you get to Aduanas and the inspection first.\u00a0 The inspector was inspecting other cars with a clipboard and not too hard to find.\u00a0 The aduana window was a dark window \u2013 did not look open.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Costa Rica Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Stay to the right and stop at the fumigation, this can cost CR $2175.\u00a0 (We were just waved through w\/o fumigation).<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Drive by the building on the left, park on right, close to entry at the fence.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go to immigration and get stamp.\u00a0 Nice official building.\u00a0 Fill out your extra tourist card info to hand in.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Walk out through the metal detector and conveyor belt.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">NOW, HERE IS WHERE THEY MAKE IT COMPLICATED.\u00a0 There are 2 Aduana offices. One is marked and on your right in a yellow building that you have already seen once you head to immigration.\u00a0 DO NOT START HERE.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go get insurance.\u00a0 This office is through the fence, past all the parked semis, in that empty looking building at the very end.\u00a0 Go to the window and give the person here your <span class=\"s1\">title, driver\u2019s passport, and license and copy of each<\/span>. Pay $40 for 3 months. (They will not let you do less).<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go to the copy shop which is just down the stairs and to the left in a booth in same area.\u00a0 You can give him any number of change and he will not give you anything back :D.\u00a0 <b>Make copies of the insurance and a copy of entry stamp in driver\u2019s passport.\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Now go back to the first Aduana building (remember the yellow one). He will want originals and copies of: driver\u2019s <span class=\"s1\">passport and entry stamp, insurance, and title<\/span>.\u00a0 They will check the VIN and the car have you fill out a paper on the specs of the car, and then give you a sheet to take to second Aduana office.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Now go back to where insurance office was, go to the end and go in.\u00a0 He will ask for all the copies, enter more stuff in the computer and finally hand you a vehicle permit.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">GET out of there and run for the hills! \ud83d\ude00<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Border: Costa Rica \u2013 Panama<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Paso Canoas, Costa Rica<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Park next to Costa Rican immigration building on Left. Go to the end that you first see as you drive by.\u00a0 Fill out an exit form and hand to the window marked Salida.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Go left from Salida window and then right to get to Aduana office which is inside a nice air conditioned room.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Ask to cancel vehicle permit, fill out a form. Hand over original permit papers and driver\u2019s passport. They will check VIN.\u00a0 (Ours did not even leave the room)<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">They will keep original but hand back form with stamp for proof of cancel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\">*We literally were through this border in 15 minutes \u2013 it was awesome! In between the 2 countries is a large area of shopping that is duty free.\u00a0 In the middle is a bank where you can change over the Costan Rican money to American dollars again.\u00a0 Do it here, it will be your last chance.\u00a0 Now drive through the crazy area to the largest building \u2013 a dirty white building.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>Panama Side<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\">\n<li class=\"li2\">Park at the other end of the immigration next to fumigation. Now go the small booth across from the main building marked Seguridad.\u00a0 Get insurance for your car.\u00a0 They need original and copies of<span class=\"s1\">: title and driver\u2019s passport<\/span>.\u00a0 They charged us $15.75.\u00a0 She gave us insurance and a copy of insurance.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Now go to immigration.\u00a0 Some people had to pay for a stamp here; other\u2019s had to prove that they had at least $500 in a bank account.\u00a0 We just had to have driver\u2019s insurance with the promise that we were shipping our car out.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Now we needed to go up stairs to an office and have our insurance stamped.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li2\">Then down to the office marked Capturo and Manifesto for permit. <b>Make sure if you are shipping across the Darien Gap that you double check every number, that chasis are labeled with your VIN or n\/a, and that engine number is also noted as the VIN. Make them do it right or you will have to find somewhere in Panama City or Colon to fix it.\u00a0 <\/b>They will want to know from what port city you are shipping from, so know ahead of time.
