Panamanian football clubs in international competitions

The following is an outline of the participation of Panamanian football teams in the regional tournaments offered by CONCACAF. Since 1988, Panama has almost always sent at least one team to the competitions. The first appearance by a Panamanian team was in the 1988 CONCACAF Champions' Cup, when Plaza Amador played in the first round.

The best run for a Panamanian team was in 2002, when Árabe Unido finished runner-up in the UNCAF Interclub Cup.

Teams from Panama have participated in nearly every edition of the CONCACAF Champions Cup (2008–present). Their best results at the tournament have been runs to the quarter-finals on five occasions: Árabe Unido in 2010, 2014, and 2017, Tauro in 2018, and Indepediente in 2019.

Panamanian teams also competed in every edition of the CONCACAF League, which began in 2017 and ended in 2021. Sides from Panama reached the semi-finals of the tournament four times: Árabe Unido in 2017 and 2018, Plaza Amador in 2017, and Tauro in 2018.

Panamanian teams now compete in the CONCACAF Central American Cup, which began in 2023.
