Welcome to Panama Information!

Panama, Latin America’s finest country, with incredible climate and a spectacular coastal landscape.

 

Come to where the sun, adventure, mistery, opportunities (business or leisure) are also abundant. Panama is virtually an undiscovered paradise. The country is famous for its biological diversity and for its varied geography with two coasts. You will have an excellent opportunity to enjoy seeing many animals as fascinating caimans, magnificent sea turtles, beautiful butterflies, exotic birds, impressive reptiles and monkeys swinging in the trees. Apart from wildlife watching you can also be part in many adventurous activities, such as white water rafting, fishing, diving, snorkeling and surfing.

Panama - Expat Heaven

Panama is getting high ranking as a spot for retirement and/or second homes. Panama has almost everything: rain forests, a diverse eco-system, pristine beaches, fertile farmland, highlands with mild climate, intact indigenous cultures and a world-class capital.

Panama wants to attract residents and businesses, and is working hard to do it. One way is by cutting the red tape. Requirements for the pensionada visa are minimal. Read more

Unlike in much of Central America, you can drink the water and eat fresh vegetables in most areas. Crime is low, except in the city of Colon and certain parts of Panama City. New highways have been built and most older roads are routinely repaired. The currency is the U.S. dollar. Another plus - Panama has numerous English-speaking, U.S.- trained doctors, and medical care is exceptionally good. The National Hospital has modern facilities and an international department with a trained bi-lingual staff.

Panama means business

Panama is also worth investigating by those interested in international business and investment. High speed internet access is widely available. Tourism investments have 20-year exemptions from import duties and income, real estate and other taxes. Over 200 banks have offices here. Read more
