In addition to the general pension rule, Panama’s official Pensionado checklist publishes a specific exception connected to personally owned real estate in Panama. It should be analyzed as a narrow exception, not as a general rule for any type of investment.
Personally owned property
The official checklist refers to property acquired personally for an amount above B/.100,000. Ownership and value should be supported with the appropriate registry documentation.
Pension amount under the exception
For that specific situation, the published information lists a minimum monthly pension of B/.750.
Do not confuse real estate with any investment
The exception is written around personally owned real estate. The actual registry documents should be reviewed before relying on it.
Verify before filing
Published amounts and documentary requirements may change. The current official checklist should be rechecked at the time of filing.
Official sources
This legal update is based on information published by Panamanian government institutions. Requirements, forms, amounts and channels may change, so the current official version should be checked again before filing.
