Studying here? Reckon on roughly 35% less. Shared halls instead of a private flat is most of it, with a meal plan, a student travel pass and a campus you do not have to rent a desk in doing the rest. Phone, insurance and a social life cost the same either way.

Healthcare, taxes & language

The decisive three for a longer stay in Panama.

Healthcare

Anyone not already insured through a job, foreigners included, can apply to the Caja de Seguro Social (CSS) voluntary scheme with a passport and a sworn asset declaration, subject to CSS medical exams. The Short-Stay Remote Worker visa (9 months, renewable once) requires private medical insurance valid in Panama for the whole stay. Official sources give conflicting minimum contributions for foreigners, so confirm costs with the CSS.

Taxes

Not taxed. Only Panama-source income is.
