PANAMA. The Immigration Department is becoming more strict with American
visitors and all of them must have a tourist visa or card which cost $5.
The customs officer will not let any Americans into the country without the
card, the forms are normally provided by the airlines and they are in English
and Spanish.
The VISA is typically good for 90 days for American visitors (at times it is
30 days).
Immigration authorities in Panama are beginning to adopt tougher measures
and currently require that foreigners carry some form of identification with
them and those people who do not comply will be fined.
Last year the National Assembly approved a new immigration law requiring
that all foreigners resident in Panama will have to have a new identification
carnet, but due to the recent presidential election, the Electoral Tribunal
delay its introduction, although it only has until August of this year to comply
with the statutes directives
