Rules vary across David. I don't have specific, reliable information about short-term rental regulations for David or Boquete in Panama. These are smaller cities where formal STR regulations may be minimal or inconsistently documented. To provide accurate information about permit requirements, owner-occupancy rules, and actual enforcement reality in these locations, I'd need to verify current local ordinances and on-the-ground enforcement practices, which I cannot reliably do with my available data. Verify requirements for the property's jurisdiction.
