Panama is accepting the electronic export certificates issued by APHIS and FSIS; and the sanitary and free sale certificates issued by NOAA, FDA and Enterprise Florida, Inc. for food products exported to Panama. There is a free trade agreement in force since October 31, 2012, named the U.S.-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement (TPA) which has the United States with 66% of the market share of food and feed imports in Panama.
