How To Renew your Passport in Colombia

Passport Renewal Services in Colombia

In addition to our extremely popular Colombian and USA visa services we also renew passports in Colombia. We can renew passports for the United States, Canada and many other countries for persons who are living in Colombia or visiting for extended periods of time. Processing times are between 2-3 weeks. For persons who have lost their passports, a persona trip to your embassy in Bogota will be required.

Colombia Visa Transfer Services:

It is also important to keep in mind that you transfer your Colombian visa to your new passport. This service is an optional service we provide for our clients. The USA and Canadian embassies return your old passport after it is cancelled so you will not lose your old visa. If you must travel before you have time to transfer your visa to your new passport, then you must take your old passport with you so it can be presented to Colombian immigration alongside your new passport.

Visas y Tramites Internacionales & Colombia Legal & Accounting SAS use professional embassy messengers in Bogota. We have never lost a passport in 10 years of processing visas & passports.

Our Story

James Lindzey founded the website ColombiaVisas.com, which is constantly updated with new information explaining visa resolutions, procedures, and laws in Colombia to expats. James has worked as a private investigator and paralegal in the United States through the 90s until he moved to Colombia in 2005. James arrived in Colombia in 2005 and started doing visas for expats, but currently works as Director of Legal Services for Visas by James, and Colombia Legal & Associates SAS since June of 2023.

Colombia Legal & Associates acquired the brand name Visas by James as it became a more familiar and easy way for foreigners to remember the business, than the previous Visas y Tramites Internacionales.

While MedellinLawyer.com focuses more on legal issues for expats, ColombiaVisas.com focuses more on visas, and holds the trademark Visas by James. ColombiaVisas.com is the oldest website and provider of visa information for expats in Colombia. We are proud to be the first and always on the cutting edge of providing interactive website content to our visitors.

In addition to our visa services our agency offers a full range of legal and accounting services to our clients. We are able to assist better in document collection services in the United States because of James previous legal experience in the United States.
