Do I need permission to enter Colombia?
Check MIG (Migración Colombia) is a border control system developed by the Colombian government to regulate the entry and exit of travelers into the country. This system aims to secure the borders and simplify immigration procedures for travelers. Whether you are a Colombian citizen or a foreign national planning to travel to the country, Check MIG is an important aspect to consider before traveling.
The electronic authorization form must be completed and submitted within 72 hours prior to departure, but no later than 1 hour before departure.
The Check-MIG is not a visa for entry into Colombia. If a traveler is coming from a country whose citizens require a visa to cross the border into Colombia, they will need two documents to check with customs officials upon arrival: the visa and the Check-MIG form.
Even if you can enter Colombia without a visa, filling out the Check-MIG form is still mandatory.
