When you enter Colombia with your international passport at the airport, it is mandatory to go through the immigration offices where you need to fill out a document. You can stay about 180 calendar days per year in Colombia with a tourist visa. After entering you will have about 30, 60 or 90 days. Depending on your plans, you can immediately apply for the corresponding stamp when entering the country. Do you want to stay longer? (which is perfectly possible because you will love Colombia), ask for 90 days. After 90 days you can extend the permit by 90 days. You can enter and leave the country, but it is easier to visit the immigration office in Bogotá. After the 180 days that the tourist visa expires, you will only be allowed to stay in Colombia applying for a visa or wait for the next calendar year; Then you will have 180 days as a tourist again.

You can apply for a student visa, tourist visa or work visa. A first work visa must be processed in Colombian consulates abroad (in the rest of the cases it will be done in Bogota). There are 5 types of passports: Ordinary, Executive, Emergency, Border and Exempt.
