What the document holds

Executive Decree 199 of 2021 (Gaceta Oficial 29290-A, 20 May 2021; scanned, read by OCR): rewrites arts. 100, 101, 103, 104, 180, 181, 183, 184 and adds art. 184-A of Decree 320 of 2008 on the forestry investor categories: temporary permit B/.80,000 (up to two foreigners per company, each investing that amount), permanent permit B/.100,000, direct permanent residence at B/.350,000, documents required, five-year holding period with annual proof; in force on promulgation. Art. 183 restates the amounts (the OCR text reads 'doscientos cien mil balboas (B/.100,000,00)', a typo in the decree; digits agree with art. 180). Art. 10 names 'Decreto Ejecutivo No.416 de 13 de junio de 2012' as the decree amended, contradicting the title (Decree 320 of 2008). This pass added: the annual-proof rule (1 rule) and the removal of the two-per-company cap for the permanent permit (1 event). Earlier passes had the amounts, the two-per-company cap for the temporary permit, the holding period and the price-change event.

About the document

What it covers New text of DE 320 arts. 100, 101, 103, 104, 180, 181, 183, 184 and new art. 184-A (forestry investor: B/.80,000 temporary, B/.100,000 permanent, B/.350,000 automatic permanent, 5-year holding).

Notes Gazette pages as posted by the SNM (4 pages, scanned; read by OCR with tesseract, spa, 250 dpi, checked against the text). The day and month of signing are illegible in the scan; only the year (2021) and the gazette date (20 May 2021) are read. Art. 11: in force from promulgation. Art. 10 says it modifies articles of DE 416 of 2012, evidently a drafting error (the title and arts. 1-9 amend DE 320).
