Phase 1: Client Onboarding
In the initial month, we initiate the client onboarding process by completing Form 1, which allows us to conduct the necessary initial Latitude due diligence. Following the completion of this screening, we provide you with a Client Agreement (CA) for your review and signature. Upon receipt of the signed agreement and retainer, our dedicated processing team assists you in completing forms and organizing required documents. If your investment involves property acquisition, you will need to establish a sales and purchase agreement with the developer. Subsequently, we facilitate communication between you, the property developer, and the Panama Citizenship by Investment Unit (CIU).
Phase 2: Application Review and Submission
During the following months (months 2-3), we meticulously review your application to ensure full compliance with the CIU’s requirements before submission.
Phase 3: Citizenship Issuance
Between months 3 to 4, the CIU evaluates your application. Upon approval, you are required to fulfill all necessary contributions and settle any government fees. Upon receipt of these payments, the CIU proceeds to issue Certificates of Naturalization, marking the successful attainment of citizenship.
Note: The timeframe for the real estate option may vary based on the project, highlighting the importance of selecting a project that can provide the necessary paperwork for the citizenship application.
