As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The clearance in front of a distribution panel is 3 feet or 1 meter depending in which country you live. Around the distribution panel there is no distance stated. An in wall flush distribution panel has zero clearance.
No, there has to be a three foot clearance in front of the panel. This is so that electricians can work safely on the panel.
The door cannot open and interfere with the panel. There must be 36" of clearance in front to the panel and 30" to each side.
Yes, it is 36" clearance in front of the box and 30" clearance on either side of a service panel or disconnect.
The 30/36/6.5 rule applies. 30" clearance side to side, 36" clearance in front of the panel, and at least 6.5' clearance in height. Now, saying that I would call the local inspector and see what he says. He has the last word and even though the national code does not specify any other requirements, best to let him tell you his requirements. IMO, the farther away from the sink the better.

as long as there is ambient clearance in front of the panel...
No, there has to be a three foot clearance in front of the panel. This is so that electricians can work safely on the panel.
There is no code regulation regarding this scenario.
There are no restrictions other than working clearance's and dedicated space for panel.
OSHA and the NEC both mandate a minimum clearance of 36 inches on panels of less than 600 volts and less that 65,000 symetrical fault amps. Panels operating at higher voltages or electrical distribution systems capable of generating higher fault currents require more clearance.

Yes, as long as there is no obstruction to the front of the distribution panel. Code states that there has to be 3 foot clearance in front of the distribution panel.
