The article explores the perceptions of the institutional mechanisms of the State established for the exercise of the political rights of Costa Rican emigrants, to examine, through political sociology, the creation of sense concerning the State-citizenship relationship in the context of migration. Based on documentary research and the application of focus groups, the article describes the different challenges associated with the exercise of political rights for Costa Rican migrants and outlines the social complexity behind identity reconfiguration processes, as part of the migration processes that affect the political space. In the conclusions, recommendations for future research are shared, as well as those issued by the study population, as a way of contributing from the results of this research.
