New RTV extensions for plates ending in 7 and 8

The Costa Rican government announced that due to the country wide lock down last week, they will be providing a one month grace period for the RTV inspection of all vehicles with license plates ending in the number 7 and 8.

This means that plates ending in 7, and which  are generally due for their RTV re-inspection by July 31st, will now have the entire month of August to renew their inspection until 2021.

Additionally,  all plates ending in 8 will have until September 30th to renew their inspection which will be good through the end of August 2021.
