For businesses in Panama, keeping the information bulletin board up to date is not only a recommended practice, it's a legal obligation that helps avoid sanctions imposed by the Directorate General of Revenue (DGI). Make sure to display regulatory documents visibly and in accordance with current regulations.

Essential Documents for Your Billboard:

Current Trading Notice: Must be signed and in a prominent place.

Pest Control Certificate: Current fumigation guarantees hygiene and complies with health standards.

Yellow Municipal Registration Card: Essential for the municipal validation of your business.

“Ask for Your Bill, Avoid the Penalty” Billing Sign: Aligned with DGI standards.

Billing Method Certification: Includes a QR code to verify the method used by the merchant.

Additional Documents depending on Applicability:

Health and Safety Permits: Such as those granted by the Ministry of Health.

Sales Restrictions: For example, the prohibition of the sale of liquor to minors.

Food Handling License: Essential for businesses in the food sector.

Fire Permits: To ensure fire safety measures.

Discount Announcements for Retired Persons: In accordance with the legal stipulations on discounts.

Consequences of Non-Compliance:

Failure to comply with these regulations May result in fines starting at B/.100.00. It is vital that your business not only complies with these regulations to avoid economic sanctions, but also to transmit trust and responsibility to your customers.

Keeping your business lineup to date is more than a compliance measure; it reflects your company's commitment to transparency and legality. Visit the DGI website for more information and be sure to check the requirements periodically to be always up to date.
