Colombia offers visa-free entry to travelers from over 90 countries for short-term stays. The mandatory Check-Mig pre-registration system simplifies your entry process for both air and land arrivals. Learn more about the Colombia Visa Policy for detailed information on visa types and application steps.

Check-Mig Pre-Registration

All travelers entering or departing Colombia must complete the Check-Mig form within 24 hours of their flight or border crossing. The form collects basic personal and travel details, and upon approval, you'll receive a QR code to present to immigration authorities. This digital process replaces paper forms and speeds up entry.

Check-Mig Application Steps

1. Fill out the online form with your personal information, passport details, and travel itinerary. Ensure all data matches your passport exactly.
2. Review and submit your application. Double-check for errors before final submission.
3. Receive your QR code via email within minutes. The QR code is valid for a single entry or exit.
4. Present the QR code to immigration authorities upon arrival or departure. Keep it accessible on your phone or printed.
