Check your Panamavisa application status.

Panama's student route is a temporary residence permit for reasons of education (permiso temporal por razones de educacion), handled by the Servicio Nacional de Migracion ¹.

The application needs a notarised power of attorney and application, three photographs, a certified passport copy, a criminal record certificate for adults, a health certificate and a sworn declaration of personal background ¹. It also needs a certified cheque for B/.250.00 payable to the Tesoro Nacional ¹.

From the school you need an admission letter, a copy of the tuition payment receipt, and a certification of the course length, shift and enrolled subjects ¹. You must show means to pay: a scholarship, a financing statement or a bank letter ¹. If someone else is responsible for you, a letter of responsibility is needed ¹. Proof of your address is also listed ¹.

The permit is for full-time regular study at centres recognised by the Ministry of Education, and you must enrol in all subjects of the study plan ¹. Work is prohibited, except professional practice or internships the school requires ¹. An extension repeats the documents, except the criminal record and the cheque, and adds the official credits of the previous year, which must be passed ¹.

The migration site also lists an appointment for a visa stamped at a consulate ². Its FAQ says travellers from visa-required countries need prior authorisation, a passport valid for at least three months, proof of funds of at least B/.500 and a booked exit ². These tourist-entry rules are not the student permit. The sources do not say whether Bangladesh is a visa-required nationality or which Panamanian mission serves Bangladesh.

Keep your permit application reference ready for the status check above.
