Frequently asked questions
What is the income requirement?
Article 46 of Colombia's visa resolution requires bank statements demonstrating monthly income of at least three current Colombian legal minimum wages during the preceding three months. It also restricts this visitor route to passports of countries exempt from short-stay visas; we confirm eligibility and the current wage figure before applying.
Can I work for Colombian clients on this visa?
No. The digital nomad visa is for remote workers whose clients and employers are outside Colombia. Working for Colombian entities requires a different visa category.
Is there a minimum stay requirement?
The visa may be granted for up to two years, but actual validity and entry conditions are determined by the Colombian authorities. Confirm travel and registration requirements for the issued visa.
Can the visa be renewed?
Article 46 provides for validity of up to two years; it does not promise an automatic additional two-year term. Check the current rules and your circumstances before planning a further stay.
