June 14, 1949 Agreement between the United States of America and Panama respecting passport visas. Effected by exchange of notes dated at Panamá March 16 and June 14, 1949; entered into force June 14, 1949. The American Embassy to the Panamanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs THE FOREIGN SERVICE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA The Embassy of the United States of America presents its compliments to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and has the honor to refer to the issuance of diplomatic and official visas by the Governments of the United States and Panama. As the Ministry is aware, the Government of the United States issues diplomatic and official visas to diplomatic and career consular officers and other Panamanian Government officials entitled to those visas valid for any number of entries during a period of one year provided, of course, that the passports remain valid for that period of time. Inasmuch as it has been noted that the Government of Panama issues diplomatic and official visas valid for only one entry this Embassy takes the liberty of submitting for the Ministry's consideration the suggestion that the Government of Panama issue visas in these categories to bearers of United States diplomatic and special passports valid for any number of entries during a period of one year, provided that the passports remain valid for that period of time. Should the Government of Panama express agreement to the Embassy's suggestion as indicated above, it would tend to place the issuance of visas in these categories on a basis of reciprocity. C. C. H.

A. 8. 2134] PANAMA, March 16, 1949 The Panamanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the American Embassy REPUBLICA DE PANAMA MINISTERIO DE RELACIONES EXTERIORES SECCION PRIMERA DEPARTAMENTO DE CEREMONIAL O PROTOCOLO D. C. o P. No El Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores saluda atentamente a la H. Embajada de los Estados Unidos de América y tiene a honra referirse a la nota verbal de la Embajada, de 16 de marzo último, relacionada con las visas diplomáticas y visas oficiales que el Gobierno de Panamá expide a los funcionarios diplomáticos y oficiales del Gobierno de los Estados Unidos, las cuales la Embajada solicita sean válidas para entrar al país las veces necesarias, por el período de un año, si los pasaportes son válidos también por este período. El Ministerio considera que en el caso de que trata la Embajada debe aplicarse la reciprocidad, y por lo tanto, está en un todo de acuerdo de conceder a los diplomáticos y funcionarios del Gobierno de los Estados Unidos, visa para entrar a Panamá en las mismas condiciones en que el Gobierno de los Estados Unidos otorga visa a los diplomáticos y funcionarios oficiales del Gobierno de Panamá para entrar a los Estados Unidos. Al efecto, el Ministerio se ha dirigido a todas las representaciones diplomáticas de Panamá, instruyéndolas en el sentido de que a partir del 1o de julio próximo, las visas que se otorgan a diplomáticos y funcionarios oficiales norteamericanos deben llevar una leyenda que diga que estas visas son válidas para entrar a Panamá las veces necesarias, por el período de un año, si los pasaportes son también válidos por este mismo período de tiempo. PANAMÁ, 14 de junio de 1949. I M. Translation D. C. o P. No. REPUBLIC OF PANAMA MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS DIVISION I DEPARTMENT OF CEREMONIAL AND PROTOCOL The Ministry of Foreign Affairs presents its compliments to the Embassy of the United States of America and has the honor to refer to the Embassy's note verbale of March 16, 1949, relating to the diplomatic visas and official visas that the Government of Panama issues to diplomatic functionaries and officials of the Government of the United States. The Embassy requests that those visas be valid for entering the country as often as necessary, for the period of one year, provided the passports are valid also for such period. The Ministry considers that in the case contemplated by the Embassy reciprocity should be applied and, therefore, is entirely agreeable to granting the diplomats and functionaries of the Government of the United States a visa to enter Panama subject to the same conditions under which the Government of the United States grants a visa to the diplomats and official functionaries of the Government of Panama to enter the United States. The Ministry has therefore addressed all diplomatic representations of Panama, instructing them to the effect that, beginning with July 1, 1949, the visas granted to United States diplomats and official functionaries must bear a statement to the effect that such visas are valid for entering Panama as often as necessary, for the period of one year, provided the passports are also valid for such period.
