Digital Health Affidavit for Travelers

Foreigners and nationals who wish to enter Panama must complete the “digital health affidavit”, which can be found at viajes.panamadigital.gob.pa.

This was reported on Tuesday, July 27, by the National Authority for Government Innovation (AIG). The traveler must provide a photo of the result of their negative Covid-19 test carried out up to 72 hours before leaving the country of origin.

The traveler must also attach their vaccination card and the hotel reservation where they will stay.

After completing the application, the passenger will receive an email with a form and QR code, through an attached PDF, which the passenger must show upon arrival in Panama.

If the passenger is only in transit, they do not have to complete the affidavit process. “In the event that the traveler is a minor, their data will be completed in the request of the adult responsible for the trip,” the entity emphasized.

On Friday, July 23, Executive Decree came into force, which establishes measures for nationals, residents or foreigners who enter the country while the state of emergency is maintained due to the pandemic.
