Tech & Safety: Costa Rica’s INS is moving ahead with the long-delayed digital marchamo—electronic vehicle registration stickers using passive RFID tags—starting for most cars in Nov 2026 (for the 2027 renewal), with motorcycles coming later via pilots. Trade & Markets: The UK says Costa Rica has been granted CPTPP accession, promising duty-free access (with quotas) for items like cheese, confectionery and animal feed, plus phased tariff cuts for pork, biscuits, and beef. Earth & Risk: A 5.1-magnitude quake hit Costa Rica Wednesday, with the epicenter about 10 km deep. Sports Tech: FIFA unveiled its 2026 World Cup Technical Study Group, including Costa Rica’s Paulo Wanchope, aiming to upgrade match analysis worldwide. Biodiversity: Conservation cameras in Colombia captured a rare nearly black tigrillo—a reminder of how much wildlife still hides in plain sight.
