"I found the services rendered by Daniela Cordoba at Colombian Visa Services to be very professional, welcoming and, most importantly, efficacious. What I was not able to do on my own for 8 months of trying, Colombia Visa Services did in 2 months. Daniela was always very prompt in responding to whatever questions I asked her via e-mail. The initial free contact conversation was extremely beneficial. The challenge was being able to remember all the helpful information that Daniela was sharing with me."
We are so very happy with Colombian Visa Services and Daniela! Years ago we were able to do our documents ourselves and it was so easy. As the years went, we had to get help with different visa services. The last we had was really not efficient and let my wife's documents lapse and it was a 6 month nightmare to get everything fixed. Daniela really KNEW what she was doing, was super helpful and professional and was so eager to help! My wife's renewal came in the VERY NEXT DAY! I highly recommend Colombian Visa Services to anyone who needs help getting or renewing their documents! Fast! Efficient! Knowledgeable! And very reasonably priced! And best of all, Daniela speaks English perfectly!

Learn more about what you need to obtain a Colombian Visa and how we can help.
Yes, most foreign nationals are required to have a visa to visit Colombia. The type of visa required depends on the purpose and length of the visit. Some countries, including citizens of the United States, Canada, Australia, and most European countries, are eligible for a tourist visa upon arrival in Colombia, which allows for a stay of up to 90 days. For longer stays or for individuals visiting for work or study, a different type of visa may be required.
First you will want to determine the type of Visa you'll need. Depending on the nature and purpose of your visit, Colombia offers 3 different types. A tourist visa, a migrant visa, and a resident visa.
After determining what Visa you'll need, you'll need to gather the appropriate documents. These documents can include passports, birth certificates, bank statements, travel itinerary, and more. Along with the documents you'll need to pay appropriate visa fees.
The ease of obtaining a Colombian visa can vary depending on several factors, including the type of visa, the individual's country of origin, and the purpose of the visit. For some individuals, such as citizens of certain countries, obtaining a tourist visa may be relatively straightforward and can be done upon arrival in Colombia. However, for other individuals or for other types of visas, the process can be more complex and may require additional documentation and evidence.
The processing time for a Colombian visa can vary depending on several factors, including the type of visa, the individual's country of origin, and the demand for visas at the time of the application. On average, processing time for a Colombian visa can range from a few days to several weeks.
It is important to note that the processing time can be influenced by several factors, including the completeness of the application and the availability of resources at the Colombian embassy or consulate. To minimize the risk of delay, it is advisable to submit a complete application and to plan ahead, allowing enough time for the visa to be processed before your intended travel date.
It's also important to note that sometimes the longest part of the visa application process is obtaining the necessary documents for the application.
