الحصول على موعد — احجز مبكرًا · وفق إفادات المستخدمين، تم التحقق في 2026-06-13
- تُطرح المواعيد على دفعات دون جدول معلن ثابت — غالبًا في الصباح الباكر بالتوقيت المحلي، وصباح الإثنين، وحول اليوم الأول من الشهر.
- في القنصليات المزدحمة (مثل فرنسا وإيطاليا وإسبانيا في المدن الكبرى) قد تُحجز الدفعة خلال دقائق — سجّل وادخل إلى حسابك قبل البحث.
- تتوفّر مواعيد طوال اليوم بسبب الإلغاءات، لذا تحقّق يوميًا حتى لو ظهر «لا توجد مواعيد».
- لذلك قدّم في أقرب وقت مسموح — حتى ستة أشهر قبل السفر. الانتظار حتى شهر أو شهرين غالبًا يعني عدم توفّر أي موعد.
معلومات مفيدة
- This visa does not allow working or doing paid activity with any person or company domiciled in Colombia — foreign income only.
- Income must be at least 3 Colombian legal monthly minimum wages (smlmv), shown via bank statements for the last 3 months.
- Validity is up to two (2) years and beneficiaries (dependants) of the main holder may be included.
- Nationalities exempt from a short-stay visa can also enter visa-free with an Entry Permit for up to 90 days (extendable to 180 days/year) if no payments come from Colombian companies — but that is not the V visa.
