What are the visa requirements to visit Panama?
U.S. citizens, as well as those of most European countries, do not need a visa. But you are required to show a tourist card, provided by your airline for a $5.00 fee. This tourist card allows you to stay in Panama for 30 days, with an option to extend for an additional 60 days. Should you be traveling alone with a child, be prepared to carry a notarized letter of consent from the absent parent. All international visitors are required to pay a $20.00 departure tax.
