Needing guidance,

 

My spouse is Cuban I’m American, he was finally scheduled for his first visa appointment in Guyana.
The only flight from Cuba to Guyana has a layover in Panama. Who do I reach out to in order to make sure he has the correct visa for entry?

The airline will know

He needs a "stamped" visa.
