Panama sits between two oceans, is known for the Panama Canal, tropical nature, islands, mountains, rainforests and modern Panama City. Traveling with a dog to Panama is possible, but it requires careful paperwork before you go.<\/p>\n\n

When traveling with a dog to Panama you need to plan for two things: entry into Panama and the return home. Entry rules are set by the Panamanian Ministry of Agriculture, MIDA (Ministerio de Desarrollo Agropecuario). Return requirements are governed by the country the dog is returning to after Panama.<\/p>\n\n

This article covers a standard non-commercial trip with a dog traveling with its owner or an authorized person. If a dog travels as cargo, for sale, for a change of ownership, or travels unaccompanied (not on the same transport as the owner), different rules may apply.<\/p>\n\n
