REGISTRATION PROCESS OVERVIEW

The planning and registration process varies depending on your research needs.
We strongly recommend you register as far in advance as possible (at least four
months) due to the high demand for housing, laboratory space and equipment, and
in order to obtain research and import/export permits in time. Below you will
find all you need to know to make your stay productive and to successfully
conclude your visit.

IMMIGRATION

Please check our immigration site for last minute information, even if you have
visited Panama before.

We recommend that before leaving the immigration post at airport, please check
that the entrance seal stamped in your passport has the correct date of entrance
and/or check that it is readable, to avoid future inconveniences.

The STRI Research platform
Smaller than the U.S. state of South Carolina, Panama has higher biodiversity
than the Amazon basin. STRI research facilities will make it possible for you to
use state of the art research techniques at the edge of a rainforest, in a
mangrove or diving along the face of a coral reef.


VISITOR SERVICE OFFICE

The Visitor Services Office (VSO) provides services to more than 1,400 visitors
from around the world who come to the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in
Panama for scientific purposes.

These services include project registration process, coordination of scientific
visits, visitor statistics, and housing reservations at each facility based on
availability.

The VSO also strives to create a positive climate for all visitors during their
stay and thus is available to assist them in channeling the help with various
STRI services such as STRI ID, Scientific Permits, and Vehicles, as well as
non-STRI related services such as transportation contacts, nearby places to
shop, and what to do in Panama.

The Visitor Services Office is located on level 300, next to the main lobby of
STRI, and is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

If you need help with the Registration of Projects and Visits in the VSO system,
please contact STRIRegistration@si.edu.

For everything related to the STRI Housing Program, please contact
VSOHousing@si.edu.

For any other issues, please contact stri-vso@si.edu.
