Registration and conditions in Colombia

  1. Keep documents

    Keep passport, visa and entry date; check validity and the work permission granted.

    References: PED-CO-VISA PED-CO-REGISTER

  2. Confirm the registration deadline

    Guidance requires registration for visas over three months and mentions 15 calendar days after entry for overseas grants. It also refers to electronic notification; clarify your case beforehand.

    References: PED-CO-REGISTER

  3. Check form and appointment

    Check e-FUT and a registration appointment. The specific card obligation remains unresolved because of the ambiguous exception for some V visas.

    References: PED-CO-REGISTER

  4. Observe programme departure

    The visa does not permit M or R applications in Colombia. Maintain cover and leave at expiry as the category requires.

    References: PED-CO-VISA

Your first days

  • Plan your transfer and keep your accommodation address available offline.
  • Before accepting a job, check the contract, work conditions and relevant local formalities.
