Turkey is not on Panama's Friendly Nations country list, so the Friendly Nations route is not open to Turkish nationals. The Qualified Investor route is open to applicants of any nationality.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Panama's Friendly Nations Visa is limited to nationals of a set list of countries. Turkey is not on that list, so Turkish nationals cannot use the Friendly Nations route.
Turkish nationals can instead look to the Qualified Investor route, which is open to applicants of any nationality and grants permanent residency on the basis of a qualifying investment. Confirm current eligibility and any conditions with the official authority.
The relevant route for Turkish nationals is the Qualified Investor route. Reported qualifying options are real estate, a securities investment through a licensed Panamanian brokerage, or a fixed term bank deposit, each held for a set period. The Friendly Nations route is not available to Turkish nationals. Confirm the current qualifying options with the official authority.
The Qualified Investor route is reported to grant permanent residency relatively quickly once a complete application is filed, but processing depends on the file and on checks. We do not publish a fixed timeline that may be out of date. Confirm current processing times with the official authority.
Reported Qualified Investor thresholds are from USD 300,000 for real estate, from USD 500,000 for a securities investment, or from USD 750,000 for a fixed term bank deposit, each held for a set period. Government and professional fees apply on top. Confirm the current figures with the official authority before committing funds.
