The costs for incorporating your company in Panama start at: US $1,195.

This cost includes expenses such as:

  • Notaries fees
  • Capital Registration Tax on the basis of authorized capital of US $10,000
  • Resident Agent fees (for the first year)
  • Notary and legalization legal fees

Optional additional costs.

Beyond the expenses listed above, you can add some additional services for a small, extra fee. These services include:

  • Nominee Directors Services – Our office can appoint the three Directors-Officers required by law. In this case there shall be an additional charge of US $300 ($100 for each Director appointed). A declaration of indemnity shall be signed by the client when requesting this service.
