How to contact Costa Rican newsrooms: verified press emails

Which address should a press release or a news tip go to? This guide gathers the newsroom and contact emails each outlet publishes on its own site. We checked them one by one on November 10, 2026; we only include addresses the outlet shows as a contact, not journalists’ personal emails. Most outlets work in Spanish, so write in Spanish unless the outlet publishes in English.

Before you write

  • One outlet at a time. Personalize the greeting and don’t put every outlet in visible copy.
  • Text in the body of the email, not only in an attachment.
  • A clear subject line: your story’s headline.

What about the other outlets?

For many outlets, such as La Nación, Teletica, Repretel, Monumental or The Tico Times, we found no newsroom email on the pages of their site we checked; some take news through a form. For those, open their official site from their profile in the directory and look for the contact page, form or newsroom WhatsApp.

A note on these emails

These are the addresses each outlet publishes so people can reach it. Use them for news, press releases and questions, not for mass advertising: besides annoying newsrooms, unsolicited bulk email can get your address flagged as spam. Outlets change their addresses from time to time; if one bounces, check the outlet’s contact page.
