Traveler Essentials 2026

The entry process is highly digitalized. All travelers must complete the Check-Mig form via Migración Colombia within 72 hours of departure.

  • Extensions: Apply for a PTP online 15-20 days before expiry.
  • Yellow Fever: Mandatory for National Parks and Amazon regions.

Safety in 2026 relies on the "No dar papaya" doctrine—minimizing the display of wealth or vulnerability in urban centers.

  • Urban Safety: Use app-based transport; keep electronics out of sight.
  • Nightlife: Never leave drinks unattended; be wary of scopolamine risks.
  • Regional Travel: Use domestic aviation to bypass Andean road complexities.
