You can apply for a Colombian visa whether you are in your country of citizenship, in a country where you have legal residency, or already in Colombia.

With all required documents ready for submission, the Colombian visa process usually takes 15–30 days. Processing time may extend if the Ministry requests additional information. Plan ahead and apply early to avoid delays

Yes, foreigners can buy property in Colombia using just their passport. No visa is required to purchase real estate. A real estate attorney ensures the process is safe and fully compliant with current regulations.

No, the M Real Estate Investment Visa requires the property to be registered exclusively in the primary applicant’s name. Co‑owners cannot apply individually. However, the main applicant can include family members as beneficiaries on the same visa.

Your investment qualifies for a Colombian Investor Visa only if registered as foreign direct investment. This requires not being a tax resident at the time of investment. Once you acquire tax residency, future investments no longer qualify.

The minimum is 350 Colombian minimum wages. With 2026’s 23% increase to COP 1,750,905 monthly wage, this equals COP 612,816,750 (~USD 167,804).​

Our recommendation: target COP 850M+ to buffer against future wage increases (9.5–23% annually). We help you find compliant properties and handle registration for visa eligibility.
