The Costa Rica national football team (Spanish: Selección de fútbol de Costa Rica) represents Costa Rica in men's international football. The national team is administered by the Federación Costarricense de Fútbol (English: Costa Rican Football Federation), the governing body for football in Costa Rica. It has been a member of FIFA since 1927, founding member of CONCACAF since 1961, and regionally it is a member of UNCAF since 1990.

From 1938 to 1961, it was a member of CCCF, the former governing body of football in Central America and Caribbean, and a predeccessor confederation of CONCACAF. It was also a member of PFC, the unified confederation of the Americas, from 1946 to 1961.

Costa Rica is the third most successful national team in its confederation and the most successful team from the Central American zone, winning 3 CONCACAF Championship titles (1963, 1969 and 1989), becoming the first champions in the history of CONCACAF's premier continental competition. Regionally, Costa Rica won 7 CCCF Championship titles (organized by CCCF, the former confederation for the Central American and Caribbean zones), and also won 8 Copa Centroamericana titles (organized by UNCAF).

Costa Rica is the only national team in Central America to have played in six FIFA World Cup editions. Costa Rica's national football team has the all-time highest average Football Elo Ranking in Central America with 1597.1, and the all-time highest Football Elo Ranking in Central America, with 1806 in 2014.

Since the late 1980s, the team has continuously been visible as a solidly competitive side and has been widely considered to be the second or third best team in the CONCACAF, with a prominent performance in the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy, making it to the knockout stage in their debut after finishing second in their group during the first phase, below Brazil. They also qualified for the 2002 and 2006 World Cups. In 2014, Costa Rica achieved their best performance in history by finishing first in their group that consisted of three former World Cup champions: Uruguay, Italy, and England. During the round 16 they defeated Greece 5–3 via a penalty shoot-out after a 1–1 draw. Moreover, during their match against the Greek team, Keylor Navas saved more than 15 shots. They reached the quarter-finals for the first time but were defeated by the Netherlands, also in a penalty shoot-out (3–4) after a scoreless draw on 5 July. Both their 2018 and 2022 World Cup campaigns ended in a fourth place group stage exit, with their only points coming from a 2–2 draw against Switzerland in 2018 and a 1–0 win over Japan in 2022.
