NewsLady Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Moratorium on Expired Vehicle License Plates Extended, and the Updated Bio-Safety Entrance Protocol at Tocumen Airport As the "reopening" of Panama gets underway from the Covid-19 pandemic there are a lot of changes taking place. This email provides information about two aspects of life in Panama that may affect you. First, ATTT (the government agency that administers vehicle registration, and matters related to owning and driving vehicles) has announced that enforcement of the expired automobile license plates ("placas" in Spanish) will continue to be suspended until the end of October 2020. "This [moratorium] measure applies [only] to vehicles with a license plate whose expiration date corresponds to the months of July, August, September and October, since the plates from previous months are available to taxpayers for their withdrawal."
