Visa Details

Panama offers several residency pathways. The Friendly Nations Visa allows nationals from 50+ countries to obtain permanent residency through economic ties to Panama (company formation, employment, or property ownership). The Qualified Investor Visa requires a minimum investment of $300,000 in Panamanian real estate or $500,000 in securities. The Short Stay Visa for Remote Workers (digital nomad visa) allows remote workers earning at least $3,000/month to reside in Panama for up to 18 months. Company formation alone does not automatically grant residency โ€” you must apply through the specific visa programme.
