What does a Panama company name need to include?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

The words Sociedad Anónima or the abbreviation S.A., and a name that is not already registered. The resident agent checks availability with the Public Registry before the articles are signed (confirm any restricted words with your specialist). Give us up to three names at checkout.
