Why Panama

Panama has constitutional communications-privacy protection, no hosting-level retention statute, and no MLAT in force with most EU member states — foreign requests fall back to letters rogatory. Note the existing US MLAT: this is distance from Brussels, not from Washington.

  • Constitutional protection of private communications requiring judicial authorisation 2004
  • No general data-retention statute covering hosting providers 2009
  • No mutual legal assistance treaty in force with most EU member states 2024
Full legal dossier

The trade-off

Genuine legal distance from Europe, and the letters-rogatory route is slow by design. But Panama does have an MLAT with the United States, so it is the wrong choice if your threat model points at Washington. Latency to Europe is 130 ms.

§03 FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01 How much is a vps in Panama?

Pricing starts at $5.00/month at PTY-1 · Costa del Este, up to $121.50 for the top configuration. Every plan includes DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64, and full root access.

02 Why choose Panama for this?

Panama offers constitutional privacy protection, no hosting retention law, and no MLAT with most EU states, so foreign requests use letters rogatory. But the US MLAT exists—it's distance from Brussels, not Washington. Best for Latin America latency, EU legal separation, cold storage, or redundancy outside Europe.

03 What is the catch with Panama?

You get real legal distance from Europe, but the letters-rogatory process is deliberately slow. However, Panama has an MLAT with the US, so it's not for threats from Washington. Latency to Europe is 130 ms.

04 Do you require identity verification in Panama?

No. Across all 16 locations, the token-only model is uniform: no name, email, phone, or ID is ever required, and payment is accepted only in cryptocurrency.
