Entry Nicaragua

Hello,

I am a German citizen and would like to travel from Costa Rica to Nicaragua in 14 days. I am currently still in Colombia.

I have heard that you should send an entry form to migration 7 days in advance to avoid fees?

Is that correct?

In addition, a tourist card is required, is the form the tourist card?

In addition, a two dollar entry and exit fee is required. Can this be paid by card or will the local currency be sufficient?

Thank you for your information

Andreas
