Panama expands access to electronic passports for students representing the country abroad

Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino has signed into law legislation expanding access to electronic passports for students representing the country abroad. The measure was enacted prior to the president's departure for an official tour of Singapore and Vietnam.

In addition to the passport provisions for student delegations, the newly sanctioned legislation includes measures regarding the territorial reorganization of the national judicial system, broadening the scope of the legal package enacted by the executive branch.
