Residency by Investment in Panama

Why Choose Panama?

Panama offers one of the most accessible and stable residency-by-investment pathways in the Americas. Known for its thriving economy, dollar-based system, and strong global banking infrastructure, Panama is a preferred destination for investors seeking financial security, international access, and a warm tropical lifestyle.

The country’s Qualified Investor Program provides efficient routes to permanent residency and, ultimately, citizenship. With its pro-business environment and strategic location bridging North and South America, Panama continues to attract high-net-worth individuals from across the world.

Benefits of Panama Residency

Obtaining Panamanian residency through investment offers a unique combination of lifestyle freedom and global opportunity:

  • Fast-Track Residency: Possible to obtain permanent residency in as little as 30–60 days.
  • Pathway to Citizenship: Eligible for citizenship after five years of residence.
  • Business-Friendly Economy: Use of the U.S. dollar and access to global banking systems.
  • Tax Advantages: Territorial tax regime—foreign-sourced income is not taxed.
  • Lifestyle Benefits: Stable government, excellent healthcare, and cosmopolitan culture.
  • Family Inclusion: Include your spouse and dependent children in the same application.

Investment Requirements

Panama offers several investment pathways to residency, including:

  • Real Estate Investment: Minimum of USD $300,000 held for five years.
  • Securities Investment: Minimum of USD $500,000 in securities.
  • Bank Deposit: A fixed-term deposit of USD $750,000 in a Panamanian bank for five years.
