Panamanian banks – it's possible

Opening a Panamanian bank account – a difficult procedure that requires the provision of a rather extensive package of documents, much more than in other jurisdictions, and experienced professionals who are well aware of all the "pitfalls". Our company offers a wide range of legal services and professionals who have been working in this field for many years.

What do I need to open a bank account in Panama?

Opening a bank account in Panama takes place in three stages:

  • documentation package generation;
  • interview with bank employees;
  • receiving a notification from a financial institution about an open account.

Often, an interview is an important part of the procedure in many banks. If the account is opened by a legal entity, then a nominee director or registered agent may be present on its behalf.

The documentation package should include:

  • statutory documents;
  • two identity documents;
  • activities, financial projections, business plan;
  • financial reports and tax returns;
  • Residence permit or confirmation of residence in the country;
  • confirmed residential address.

A deposit amount is required. Each bank sets its own deposit amount, which ranges from one thousand to ten thousand US dollars.

The process of opening an account can take from one to two months.

Our advantages

International business, end to end

Corporate structuring, company registration in Ukraine and abroad, tax and reporting, migration, bank accounts, DUNS and NCAGE codes. We run the whole project, from choosing the solution to the finished documents.

Confidentiality under contract

Confidentiality terms are set out in our contract. We do not pass information about a client or their project to third parties, except where the law expressly requires it.

Choosing a jurisdiction

We compare jurisdictions against your business task: tax regime, reporting, substance requirements and access to banking. On the call we go through the upsides and the limits of each option.

Timelines and data

We name the timeline for every step before the work starts — it depends on the jurisdiction, the registrar and the bank. Personal data is used only to deliver the service.

We deal with authorities and banks

We handle the correspondence with registrars, government bodies and banks and answer their requests ourselves. From you we need documents and signatures.

We see every case through

We take each case to the finish: if an authority or registrar comes back with remarks, we revise the documents at no extra charge. The fee is calculated for your task before work starts.
