What data is expected?
A database of postcodes/zipcodes and the corresponding geospatial locations in terms of a latitude and a longitude (or similar co-ordinates in an openly published national co-ordinate system). A database which gives a location in terms of the name of a town or a street without lat/long co-ordinates is not considered acceptable unless the name of the town or street can be further converted to a latitude and longitude by means of other open data (eg an open gazetteer with latitude and longitude attributes).

Details
Our postal service is mediocre at best. Their link is: http://www.correospanama.gob.pa/
The institution that manages the land and maps, ANATI, has their website down at the moment. http://www.anati.gob.pa/
They publish PDF maps but I haven't been able to find a post code database. In practical terms, we don't use them in our daily life.
