However, Article 8 of the law exempts the sale and holding of knives described as follows: shaving blades, table and hunting knives, Knives used by butchers and meat processors, knives used in the shoe industry, machetes and other tools used in the ordinary course of labor. It also exempts knives from the carrying permit required for weapons so long as they are being carried as part of employment or labor of the individual carrying the knife or being used as part of a sporting event.

Dear Sir:
The citizenship of the parties is not relevant, you can present a divorce case as long as you bring to your country the proper documents, (the marriage certificate in this case) duly legalized, in order to be recognized by the local authorities.
For instance, if you got married in United States, with a Costa Rican, you can get divorced in Costa Rica, if you bring the marriage certificate duly consularized and translated.
