To resolve an irregular immigration status, you must first request an appointment to begin the administrative process. Once you attend this appointment, an immigration officer will inform you of the exact amount to be paid. After the payment is confirmed, you will be able to obtain a Salvoconducto to either continue with your visa process or leave the country legally.
Egregious infractions include failing to comply with deportation orders, returning to the country before a prohibition period, promoting illegal entry with false promises, being sentenced to prison without expulsion, or being fraudulently documented as a Colombian national. These can lead to expulsion and heavy fines.
To process a Salvoconducto, you must fill out the “Single Procedures Form” (FUT) online, schedule an appointment with Migración Colombia, present original documents, and, if authorized, complete enrollment procedures and pay the associated fee.
Extenuating circumstances are factors that can reduce the amount of an immigration fine, potentially up to 50%. These circumstances are evaluated by Migración Colombia under Resolution 360 of 2015 and affect the final economic penalty.

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
