The IAI Executive Directorate is relocating its headquarters to Panama following a decision by the Conference of the Parties. The transition involves drafting a Headquarters Agreement to be approved by the National Assembly of Panama, with the process expected to proceed after the Panamanian general elections on May 5, 2024. To ensure operational continuity, the IAI has requested that its current facilities and diplomatic privileges in Uruguay remain active until July 31, 2025.

• The Conference of the Parties has approved a proposal for the IAI Executive Directorate headquarters to be hosted in Panama.
• The establishment of the headquarters in Panama requires a Headquarters Agreement between the IAI and the Republic of Panama, which must be approved by law by the National Assembly of Panama.
• The timeline for the relocation is influenced by the Panamanian general elections on May 5, 2024; the agreement is expected to be presented to the National Assembly after the new government takes office on July 1, 2024.
• The IAI has formally requested the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uruguay to extend bank accounts and diplomatic privileges and immunities for staff and their families until July 31, 2025, to maintain operations during the transition.
• Relocating the headquarters to Panama is intended to increase regional connectivity and strengthen engagement with the Caribbean and Central America.
