You responded right away. I I felt the firm had expert knowledge about the immigration/Visa process. I have been very happy with your the service. The patience guidance that your lawyers have given to me was immeasurable. all of your lawyers were very clear and concise with their directions to me.
NDM is amazing. We used them for our pensionado visas, driver’s licenses, setting up bank account, land purchase, rental house lease agreement, and the creation of a legal foundation (like a trust) in Panama.
They were very dedicated to helping me obtain my Friendly Visa. 100% recommend.

Every year, thousands of people in Panama look for new opportunities for life, investment or professional development. However, understanding the migration system and its formalities can be overwhelming without proper accompaniment: complex procedures, required documents, new decrees and the management of time according to the type of permit requested. From those who apply to any category of permanent resident permit, to those who apply for a short-stay visa to visit relatives, each case requires specific attention and knowledge of the updated current regulations.
At NDM Law Firm & Associates our team of immigration lawyers has extensive experience in this branch and are prepared to assist you in all legal aspects of your immigration process. Whether you want to apply for a visa from friendly countries in Panama, access a residence for humanitarian reasons, apply as a pensioner, manage your driver’s license or process naturalization for having complied with the time and requirements to do so, we work strategically seeking to maximize your chances of success. We also manage special permits under treaties such as the Panama-Italy Treaty, benefit granted to citizens of Italian nationality or contracting of foreigners under the Marrakech Agreement in Panama.
Available legal solutions may include temporary permits for studies or internships, short-stay visas as a remote worker (digital nomad visa), permits for foreign personnel hired under 10% of ordinary staff and processes as a forest investor or residence as an investor in the special economic area Panama Pacific. In addition, we offer complete guidance on procedures related to the permanent resident card in Panama requested in the Civil Registry, which is obtained once the permanent resident procedure is completed before the National Migration Service; doubts about the examination applied by the Electoral Court to obtain naturalization; and the requirements to approve foreign licenses.
We are distinguished by our transparency, commitment and personalized approach. We explain each step clearly, send the costs in advance and make sure that each client feels accompanied throughout their migration process. Our mission is to provide peace of mind, legal certainty and concrete results.
