However, being the shareholder\u2019s spouse, child or other relative does not immediately authorize someone to vote, receive distributions or sell those shares.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The process involves two connected matters: establishing who inherits the shares and completing the corporate steps that record the new ownership.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For families and foreign advisers, the first practical question is whether the available corporate records accurately identify the deceased\u2019s shareholding. This article focuses on <strong>registered shares<\/strong>, known in Panama as <em>acciones nominativas<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Do Heirs Inherit the Company\u2019s Assets or Its Shares?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An heir may receive the deceased\u2019s ownership interest in the corporation, subject to the applicable inheritance rules and the rights attached to those shares.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Inheriting shares does not directly transfer the corporation\u2019s assets to the heir.<\/strong> If a Panamanian corporation owns an apartment, for example, the apartment remains owned by the corporation. The heir receives the shareholding allocated through the succession process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This distinction matters when a company holds real estate, investments or a family business. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lacgrp.com\/en\/servicios\/corporate-and-business-law\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>corporate and business law team<\/strong><\/a> can review the ownership structure and the rights associated with the shares.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>First, Establish Which Shares the Deceased Owned<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before arranging a transfer, compare the documents held by the family with the corporation\u2019s records.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An old certificate may not reflect subsequent transfers, cancellations or changes. Conversely, missing certificates do not necessarily establish that the deceased had no ownership rights.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Record<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>What to check<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Share certificates&nbsp;<\/td><td>Named holder, number, class and identification of shares.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Share register&nbsp;<\/td><td>Recorded ownership and previous transfers.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Articles of incorporation and amendments&nbsp;<\/td><td>Capital structure and relevant provisions.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bylaws&nbsp;<\/td><td>Internal rules governing shares and shareholder rights.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shareholder agreements&nbsp;<\/td><td>Commitments or arrangements relevant to the shareholder\u2019s death.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Succession documents&nbsp;<\/td><td>Recognition of inheritance rights and allocation of the shares.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also confirm whether the deceased owned the shares personally or whether they belonged to another entity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where shares are held by a corporation or private interest foundation, identifying the deceased as the person who controlled the structure does not, by itself, establish that the shares belonged to their personal estate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Recognition of Heirs Is Different from Allocation of Shares<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The succession process must establish who is entitled to inherit and how the relevant shares are allocated.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>declaration of heirs<\/strong> identifies those entitled to participate in an intestate succession. It should not be confused with the subsequent allocation of a specific shareholding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lacgrp.com\/en\/declaration-of-heirs-panama\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>declarations of heirs in Panama<\/strong><\/a> explains that distinction. For the broader procedure, see our overview of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lacgrp.com\/en\/probate-proceedings-in-panama-process-timeline-costs-and-legal-requirements\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">probate and succession proceedings in Panama<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The corporate documentation should reflect the outcome of the succession process, rather than relying solely on a family relationship or an informal agreement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How Are Inherited Shares Recorded in the Corporation\u2019s Books?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the necessary succession documents are available, the corresponding corporate formalities must be completed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Article 29 of Panama\u2019s Law 32 of 1927<\/strong> provides that registered shares are transferable in the company\u2019s books according to its articles of incorporation or bylaws. The transfer binds the corporation from its entry in the share register.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organojudicial.gob.pa\/uploads\/wp_repo\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Ley-32-de-1927.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>text of Law 32 published by Panama\u2019s Judicial Branch<\/strong><\/a> provides the statutory basis for this requirement.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The practical review should address:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The document supporting the allocation of the shares.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Consistency between that allocation and the existing corporate records.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The formalities applicable within the corporation.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Updating the share register.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The treatment of previous certificates and documentation of the new ownership.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The corporation\u2019s share register is different from Panama\u2019s Public Registry.<\/strong> A transfer of shares and a change of directors or officers are separate corporate matters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What Happens When Several Heirs Receive Shares?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dividing a shareholding among several heirs can affect voting power, distributions and decision-making within the company.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before implementing changes, establish:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The interest allocated to each heir.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The rights attached to the relevant class of shares.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How rights will be exercised where ownership is shared.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Whether relevant agreements or corporate provisions apply.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The effect of the new ownership structure on company decisions.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One heir may want to remain involved in the business while another prefers to sell. These choices require separate analysis: <strong>inheriting a shareholding and selling it are different transactions<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What if the Share Certificates Cannot Be Found?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A missing certificate does not, on its own, resolve the ownership question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The share register, previous corporate actions and other supporting records should be examined. It is also important to distinguish a lost certificate from a dispute over who owned the shares.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any replacement documentation must follow the applicable requirements and safeguards. Issuing a new certificate should not be treated as a routine ad&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When a shareholder of a Panamanian corporation dies, their shares may form part of their estate.
