Qualified Investor
Program in Panama
The "Qualified Investor" immigration program was established under Executive Decree No. 722 dated October 15, 2020. This legislative instrument provides international investors with a streamlined pathway to obtain permanent residency status in the Republic of Panama—through an expedited 30-day process—which may ultimately lead to Panamanian citizenship and the issuance of a Panamanian passport.
- 30-Day Fast-Track Process: The Qualified Investor Program grants foreign investors an accelerated avenue to secure lawful permanent residency in Panama. This immigration status opens the door to naturalization, allowing eligible applicants to apply for Panamanian citizenship and subsequently obtain a Panamanian passport.
- Remote Application Capability: One of the key advantages of this program is that the investor’s physical presence in Panama is not required at the time of application. Immigration filings may be lawfully submitted by the investor’s legal representative through a duly executed special power of attorney.
Economic Solvency by Real Estate Investment
This immigration category is designed to attract high-net-worth individuals seeking legal residency in the Republic of Panama through a secure and advantageous investment structure.
- Foreign nationals who invest a minimum of US$300,000 in Panamanian real estate, with verifiable funds originating from abroad, are eligible to apply under this program.
- The initial residence permit is granted for a period of two (2) years, after which the applicant becomes eligible to apply for permanent residency—making this one of the most streamlined and beneficial residency pathways in the country.
- In the event the applicant wishes to include dependents (spouse and/or children), the investment must be increased by US$2,000 per dependent, a requirement that must be supported with a local bank reference letter.
- This program not only facilitates a path to permanent residency, but also offers investors the opportunity to participate in one of the most stable real estate markets in the region, under a legal framework that guarantees asset protection, tax efficiency, and long-term migration security.

Retirement Residency
Program for Pensioners
Any foreign national who receives a retirement or pension income from a foreign government, international organization, or private company, and who enters the Republic of Panama with the intention of establishing permanent residence, may apply for Permanent Residency under the Pensionado Visa Program.
- This immigration benefit is designed to attract financially self-sufficient retirees by offering lifetime permanent residency in a stable, investor-friendly jurisdiction. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate that they receive a lifetime monthly pension of no less than US$1,000, and that they possess the economic means to fully support themselves—and any dependents—while residing in Panama.
- This program is widely recognized as one of the most attractive retirement options globally, offering not only legal residence but also a range of exclusive incentives, such as tax exemptions and discounts on services, all within a welcoming and secure environment.
