I have been living in Nicaragua for 9 years and the information in this article is right on. One thing that was not mentioned in the article is I do not recommend shipping your belongings here in a container. There are many problems and months before you get your things. If you have your residency your belongings are duty free, but their are some hidden costs and lots of headaches.. Most everything one needs can be purchased here.
