The Colombia Check-MIG Form is a new obligatory travel authorization document that each visitor, entering or leaving Colombia, must have.

The document was introduced to create a safer environment for both international travelers and border control officials since it's essential to minimalize unnecessary contact during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The form needs to be completed online within 24 hours in advance each time travelers cross the Colombian border and up to one hour before their flight takes off.

Colombian Check-MIG allows a single entrance to Colombia; thus, a new form must be completed upon entering as well as when going back to one's home country. The approved Check-MIG stays valid for 30 days from issuing.

Travelers who plan to visit Colombia should follow a quick 3-step online application process to receive the approved Colombia Check-MIG via email.

Important! Check-MIG is not a visa to Colombia. If a traveler is coming from a country that needs a visa to cross the Colombian border, they will need two documents for control by the customs officials upon arriving (visa AND the Check-MIG form).

If one can enter Colombia visa-free, the Check-MIG form is still obligatory to have.

All tourists crossing the Colombian border need to have a copy of this document upon arrival or departure from the country.

  Please note! Whenever you cross the Colombia border, you need a new Check-MIG copy. It serves as a single-entry, no matter if you are entering or leaving the country.

• Requirements on arrival

  All travelers must have two essential documents upon arrival in Colombia.

  Please make sure that you have the following documents for control of the customs officials at the airport or upon control at the different types of borders (land, sea, or river):

  • a valid travel document
  • a copy of the Check-MIG completed within a maximum of 24 hours prior to your travel

  Please note! Check-MIG does not serve as a visa to Colombia. It does not replace a visa permit for anyone who may need it to cross the Colombian border. Check-MIG is an obligatory document for anyone entering/leaving Colombia for the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Even if you are eligible to enter Colombia visa-free, this document is still necessary to have.
