Formalizing a corporate pact on premises, shopping plazas, and warehouses in the Republic of Panama is significantly moldable to the financial structure desired upon perfection. This is due to the strong foundation of civil freedom regarding the legislation regulating the relationship between Panamanian operating companies and their landlords.

Strict Written Liability

Every business substantiated in contracts for commercial premises must undoubtedly establish in writing who bears the risk and operation, formalizing it upfront in a notary or through legal instruments. This should be done under the representative account of the operating legal entity (personería jurídica) and not under unconstituted independent names in the most advanced leases.

Triple Net Lease (NNN) Stipulations

It is not rare, and it is highly recommended, that the general Panamanian format incorporates the contractual modality called the "Triple Net Lease" (or equivalent) for dependencies dedicated to large separate offices or logical operations in the local market. Under this structure, the original required base rent is overwhelmingly separated from all or the primary tax/operational items, and the obligation of payment for these sums (the exact incurred consumption) transitions and falls exclusively on the name or the final billing responsibility of the signing occupant of the corporate lease:

  • Property and Real Estate Taxes (Patrimonio).
  • Insurance for Damages or Extensive Commercial Operations of the Perimeter.
  • Operational Conservation Costs for General Maintenance of Structures (CAM) or Condominium Fees.

Alternative options dictate or encompass a more integrated payment contract (Full Service Gross) charged per square meter, from which the aforementioned costs are fractioned by the landlord. Control over this is of a much higher complexity than the social sector, demanding metrics on projections and short-term bonds for restitution in joint accounts alongside P.H. administrative boards, formalizing the P.H. agreements for corporate liability annexes with Landager as your foundation.
