How to Enter Panama’s Regional Fiscal Lottery Draw.

You enter Panama’s Regional Fiscal Lottery Draw by collecting five valid fiscal store invoices and submit them in a letter-sized envelope to an official drop-off box. The idea behind this government lottery program is to receive taxes from stores that may offer you a 7% decrease in cost if you pay cash and do not request an invoice.  The invoice is of course, is your entry ticket to the lottery.  Expats and locals are encouraged to participate.

  • Envelope: Use a plain white or manila, letter-sized (or smaller) paper envelope. Do not use colored or decorated envelopes.
  • Contact Information: Write five details clearly on the outside of the envelope:
    • Full name
    • ID number (Cédula) or residency number
    • Phone number
    • Email address
    • Physical address

Submission and Deadlines.

  • Drop-off Locations: Place your filled envelope into the authorized ballot boxes located at participating shopping centers or regional DGI (Dirección General de Ingresos) offices before the deadline for your specific region.
