Unfortunately, no matter how badly you want to move to beautiful Panama, you may not be able to.
To live in Panama, you have to get a residency visa. There are rules – lots of rules – for getting a visa. You must dot the i’s and cross the t’s precisely right to get a visa.
The two main things that could prevent you from getting a visa are your criminal report and income.
Panama has strict rules about your income to qualify for a Pensionado Visa. And they have strict investment criteria to qualify for other visas.
Panama is also very picky about allowing people who have anything on their criminal record to get a visa in Panama. One minor thing could be approved. But multiple offenses or serious offenses could prevent you from getting a visa, no matter how long ago.
Other things could prevent you from getting a visa, too. Learn about what they are when you watch the replay of the Livestream:

It could be possible to get a visa, but other things could make it not ideal to live in Panama. You can learn about the other things on this page:
Are You Eligible To Move to Panama?
During the Livestream, I also announced important changes to the Online Panama Relocation Guide. It is updated monthly!
The Online Guide has all the information you need to know to have a hassle-free move to Panama. It also includes our vetted and reliable list of immigration lawyers, real estate agents, insurance brokers, and other contacts you will need. I added information about health insurance options for medical emergencies, even if you have pre-existing conditions.
