Panama is a Smoke-Free Country
If you’re a smoker (including vaping) and planning a trip to Panama, you must know that no smoking is allowed in most public places in Panama. This includes no smoking while walking down the street. There are very few designated smoking areas where you will be allowed to smoke.
All hotels are smoke-free. Some hotels have a small smoking area outside, far from the entrance. Hotels do not allow smoking in any hotel room or on the balcony.
All casinos are smoke-free.
Many apartment and condo complexes do not allow smoking in the apartment or on the balcony. Some landlords will not allow smoking in the house or anywhere on the property.
In addition, smoking is not allowed within a specified distance of doorways, outdoor patios of bars or restaurants, parks/beaches, outdoor stadiums, and outdoor markets. These rules apply to vaping too.
When you arrive at Tocumen International Airport, you’ll see the sign below, which shows where you cannot smoke. Panama hopes to become a completely smoke-free country soon.
