What is specific to Panama
Coverage in Panama
Panama City, San Miguelito, David, Colón and every other city and town are on the FedEx and DHL network. Give your address the way you give it to local couriers: neighbourhood, building name or house number and street, plus your phone number so the carrier can reach you.
Customs and tax in Panama
Customs Resolution 049 of 2025, in force as of October 2026: a shipment with a customs value of no more than 100 balboas (USD 100) pays no tax at all, provided its goods are not restricted. From USD 100 to USD 2,000: customs duty by product, up to 15% for most goods and with 87% of US-origin products duty-free under the trade agreement, plus 7% ITBMS; the carrier files the declaration through a licensed broker. Above USD 2,000 the general clearance process applies. We prepare the clearance paperwork free of charge and your purchase invoice travels with the box from the start. For updates: the customs website ana.gob.pa.
ID and billing
Since 6 September 2025 customs has required the cédula (individuals) or RUC (companies) on every shipment worth USD 100 or less; a shipment that arrives without it is delayed and may be returned, so add it to your shipment notes and we include it from the start. Your invoice is in US dollars exactly as the calculator shows; the dollar circulates in Panama, so there is no exchange difference and nothing is added after payment.

Questions from customers in Panama
A shipment with a customs value of no more than USD 100 pays no tax at all, provided its goods are not prohibited or restricted. The threshold is on the value of the whole shipment, not per item, so add up everything in the box before you ask us to ship it.
Customs duty by product, up to 15% for most goods, with 87% of US-origin products exempt under the trade agreement, then 7% ITBMS. The carrier files the declaration through a licensed broker up to USD 2,000 and collects the amount from you before delivery.
Yes, for shipments worth USD 100 or less: since September 2025 customs has required the cédula for individuals or the RUC for companies, and a shipment that arrives without it is delayed and may be returned to origin. Add it to your shipment notes and we include it from the start.
Restricted goods, or goods subject to non-tariff regulation, fall outside both the exempt category and the simplified declaration and go through general clearance; they include food and medicines that need sanitary certificates. Build your order around clothing, footwear, electronics and similar unrestricted goods.
Economy takes 7–9 business days and Express 5–7 from the day the box leaves our receiving center, and the tracking number reaches you as soon as it ships. Exempt shipments are released on the carrier’s manifest directly, so they clear fastest.
