How can I apply for a digital nomad visa despite the company I’m working for having operations in Panama?
I want to relocate to Panama to work on a digital nomad visa. The issue is my company has a lot of operations in Panama (which I won’t be directly involved with), but I’m concerned I would be viewed less favorably because of that. Is it an issue or should I go ahead and apply?
