Latest update: Information on political demonstrations in Panama

There are nationwide protests taking place which could affect travel around the country and Panama City. 

Before you travel, check the ‘Entry requirements’ section for Panama’s current entry restrictions and requirements. These may change with little warning. Monitor this advice for the latest updates and stay in contact with your travel provider.

If you plan to pass through another country to return to the UK, check the travel advice for the country you’re transiting.

It is more important than ever to get travel insurance and check it provides sufficient cover. 

Political demonstrations may occur at short notice.

If you travel to Darien province you should do so only with an organised group to destinations under the surveillance of the Panamanian police. 

Although there’s no recent history of terrorism in Panama, attacks can’t be ruled out. 

You can contact the emergency services on 911. Alternatively, call 104 for police or 103 for ambulance and fire.
