In October 2023, Costa Rica and Panama came to a bilateral agreement to transport migrants who had crossed theDarien Gap in Panama (and who could afford the fee) directly to theTemporary Migrant Care Center by bus.[3][4]
In February 2025, both countries agreed to receive deportation flights carrying migrants fromChina,Afghanistan,Pakistan, and other nations as part ofU.S. President Donald Trump’s crackdown onundocumented immigration. Analysts suggest the agreements were influenced by political pressure and tariff threats from the USA.Costa Rica’s President Rodrigo Chaves described the move as assisting a "powerful northern ally," while Panama faced pressure over thePanama Canal. Deportees were temporarily detained in both countries before repatriation, though many feared returning to their countries of origin.[5]
