My husband and I will be hiring a Panama attorney to help us through the pensionado visa application shortly. We anticipate using Mayra Lamboglia De Ruzzi for the process. Our questions are; upon arrival at the airport will there be entrance fees? We have traveled through the Carribean and I recall small fees upon arrival at each island. A second question is, is it advisable to go ahead and go to Panama City and then begin the whole process with Mayra when we get there.? Finally, we will be bringing two small elderly dogs, We prefer to have them with us instead of traveling in the cargo area.. Has anyone encountered difficulty doing this? We appreciate your responses as we are inexperienced in these matters.
