🇨🇴 Colombia

Tourist Entry (Visa Exempt)

Citizens of 100+ countries can enter Colombia without a visa for tourism. Initial stay of 90 days, extendable to 180 days per calendar year. NO work permitted under any circumstances - even remote work is technically not allowed without proper visa. Popular first step for those exploring Colombia before committing to longer visa. Extensions available at Migracion Colombia offices. Overstaying results in fines and potential entry bans. Many expats use this to test cities before applying for proper visa.
