How to get paid in dollars in Panama
In Panama the US dollar circulates as currency, so your pay arrives without conversion: an international transfer (SWIFT) is credited in dollars at Banco General, Banistmo or BAC. Payoneer and Wise work too, and Wise gives you US account details. PayPal can receive.
- Account at Banco General, Banistmo or BAC: receives SWIFT in dollars.
- Payoneer: receives payments from companies, Deel and marketplaces.
- Wise: account with US details to get paid by ACH.
- Deel, Ontop and similar: pay to Payoneer, Wise or your bank.
Taxes in Panama
Taxes are run by DGI. Panama only taxes Panamanian-source income (territorial system), but work done from the country may count as Panamanian-source and some services owe ITBMS: check with an accountant.
Tips
- GMT-5 all year: in winter you match US Eastern time exactly.
