Non-Resident Visas

Overview

Panama has 17 types of non-resident visa — one for every situation. The most common mistake is arriving without the right one, or staying longer than permitted. The consequences range from fines to deportation and a re-entry ban. We analyze your profile, identify the visa that applies to your case and manage the entire process. No lines. No confusion. No risk of a file error costing you months of delay.

General requirements

• Passport. Photographs. Proof of economic solvency. Specific documentation depending on the type of visa requested.
• For some categories: a letter of invitation, employment contract or letter from a Panamanian company.

Important

Non-resident visas do not allow you to work or reside permanently. They grant migratory status for a defined period, generally one or two years, with the possibility of renewal.
