Panama’s move from Annex I to Annex II of the European Union’s tax list marks a new stage for the country. The decision could reduce regulatory and reputational friction, although it does not eliminate compliance controls or international scrutiny.
The agreement restores the bilateral tax framework, limits taxation on certain cross-border income and strengthens measures against tax evasion and avoidance. Its tax provisions will generally apply from 1 January 2027.
For a company planning to enter Argentina, understanding the market is no longer enough. Identifying regulatory, labour, tax and reputational risks is part of the market-entry strategy.
