Please keep in mind the following steps if you need to request a duplicate of your document from Migración Colombia:
– You should only request a duplicate if you have lost your document. However, if your document was stolen, you must first file a report at the nearest police station, prosecutor’s office, or SIJIN.
– Visit Migración Colombia’s website to schedule an appointment for the duplicate process. During the process, select the Sub-procedure ‘Duplicate.’
– Remember to fill out the Single Form of Procedures (FUT).
– Attend the scheduled appointment at the Colombian Migration office, and bring your original passport, a copy of the visa, and the printed FUT.
– Make the payment of 246,000 Colombian pesos.
To request your Cédula de Extranjería, please bring your original passport and a copy of the main page that displays your personal information. Additionally, you’ll need a printed copy of the approved electronic visa. Your passport should be valid for at least three months. You must also show confirmation of the Formulario Único de Trámites and your payment receipt.
Minors (between 7 and 17 years old) who are visa beneficiaries must accompany the minor’s father, mother, or legal representative.
The Cédula de Extranjería is a vital legal document in Colombia, serving as the official identification for foreigners. Issued by the Special Administrative Unit of Migración Colombia, this identification card is mandatory for all foreign citizens of legal age and minors over 7 years old with a valid visa for more than three months. The foreigner obtains legal recognition and access to services in Colombia; obtaining the Cédula de Extranjería is a pivotal step in ensuring a smooth and compliant stay in the country.
The fees of the Cédula de Extranjería have a general rate of 246,000 Colombian pesos (50 USD approximately).

I had an amazing experience working with Luisa Amaya and the team at Expatgroup to obtain my digital nomad visa in Colombia. Luisa was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and patient throughout the entire process. She guided me step-by-step, ensuring everything was done correctly and on time. The team’s dedication and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful experience completely seamless. I highly recommend Expatgroup for anyone looking for expert assistance with visas in Colombia!
El servicio que me prestaron fue super profesional desde el primero momento, mi caso era un poco distinto y fueron pacientes con cada pregunta que tuve, ademas de ser super profesionales con sus respuestas y asesoria, la verdad me quitaron muchos dolores de cabeza con el proceso
Folks have been just a blessing to help me navigating all this without having a significant understanding of the language and a terrible habit of putting this kind of stuff off to a fault. Helped keep me informed and on schedule.
Thanks to Expatgroup I am getting all the support I need to begin working on time in my new job. This service is convenient for someone already in Medellín and in need of an FBI background check.
Last year I utilized Expat Group to renew my visa and everything went very smoothly. They are friendly, professional and efficient.
This year I’m utilizing their visa renewal services again. I recommend them 100%.
Expatgroup is a great service. They work diligently on your behalf to make sure that all your documents are in order before they submit them to the Migration Service of your behalf. If you have any questions they are willing to meet with you to provide the answers prior to you submitting your application request. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is applying for a visa to live in this wonderful country. Roddy
