Panama: Immigration Lawyer Referral:
My family is retiring to Panama (Bocas del Toro) this coming year (August, 2004). I hear that I will need to hire a lawyer soon to begin the maze of paperwork required to obtain visas, ship goods, etc. Does anyone have a recommendation for a reasonably priced, but competent, lawyer that I can hire for this purpose? Is hiring a lawyer the only way to go? What should I expect to pay and how long will it take? What other questions should I be asking?
Thanks!
Panama: Cargo Container to Panama:
Karan, we're moving to Bocas as well this coming year and I'm shipping all of our stuff in a 40' container out of Long Beach using Marlog. Here's what I know at this point:
One time handling charge (to load the container) of 20 cents a cubic foot
Storage fee of 30 cents a cubic foot
Car and goods will take approximately 16 days to reach Colon (Evergreen shipping)
Shipping fee for container is approximately $3,000
Contact is Martin Baker
Hope this helps. Are you another Isla Solarte buyer? If so, please call us at 775-626-2062 just for introductions.
Thanks.
