  • Banking and housing: help opening a bank account and finding the right place to live.
  • Personal concierge: someone to greet you when you arrive in Panama.
  • 3 day guided orientation: we show you around your new area: neighborhoods, shops, clinics and the everyday essentials.
  • Community: introductions to friendly expat communities so you feel at home from day one.
