Panama FAQ
What is the general timeline for setting up a company in Panama?
After submitting all required documentation, the Public Registry of Panama normally completes the incorporation of a news corporation within 5 to 7 business days.
Who is eligible to establish a corporation or business in Panama?
Any adult individual or legal entity, regardless of nationality or residency, can serve as a shareholder or director, with no requirement to be physically present.
Does Panama offer privacy and confidentiality for business owners?
Panama provides strong privacy protections; while director names are public, the use of nominee services is common to maintain the anonymity of ultimate owners.
Which specific documents are needed to begin name registration?
Applicants must submit valid passport copies, professional reference letters, and recent utility bills as proof of address for all directors and stakeholders involved.
What are the core tax and annual compliance obligations?
Panamanian companies follow a territorial tax system, meaning zero tax on foreign income, provided they pay an annual franchise fee and keep basic accounting records.
