I have to disagree as I always pay my departure tax as I leave. When there is a line at the airport, it moves quickly. It also eliminates the chance of misplacing it during your stay. JMHO,
YMMV


Ditto amigo. I have never waited more than 2-3 minutes over the last 3 years plus (15 or 16 trips) to pay the exit tax. I see no reason to pay for it in advance.

Double Ditto---I've always purchased it just before checking in at the counter across from the check-in counter and at most I've had to wait a minute or 2.

The opening of the second area to pay your exit tax last year and the start of sales at all BCR branches has reduced the lines at the airport to almost nothing.

The advantage I found by purchasing it in advance is the ability to sit down and fill out the form at my leisure rather than trying to find something to lay the form on so I can fill it out before having check in.
