Colombia / Travel Coronavirus Updates

[Just Incognito]

I fly out of Colombia on a Monday morning and need proof of a negative test result within 48 hours of my final connecting flight which is at 415 pm Monday. So, I need a Covid test on Saturday after 415 pm that gets me the results back by Monday morning before I fly at 945 am: Does anyone know of a testing center that tests on Saturdays after 430 pm or Sunday and can get the results back by Monday morning?

The place I used on my previous trip only does testing until 1 pm on Saturday for some reason.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Were you able to eventually complete the immigration form? I had a problem and the nice Spirit counter woman at the Orlando airport completed it for me. She said she did not know what was causing the problem. A friend of mine told me he printed the form and completed it manually and they accepted it.

I had the same problem back in June of this year. I completed the form but never received the confirmation email. I had to convince the AA airline agent to let me board. Luckily, I had screen printout of my answers, and that helped sway the agent. Later on, I was told that my problem was due to using my desktop. Since then, I switched to using my phone and never had a problem since.

Does the Col immigration still require the form?

I wish I could just just say "Yes", but the forum software won't allow short answers. The Check-Mig form is still required for entry and exit.

Same problem with the Col. Immigration form while I am returning to the States tomorrow.

Does the Col immigration still require the form?

Hate to deal with the Colombian bureaucracy / admin.

I am unable to complete the form provided. It keeps telling me I have a form completed for that date but that not true. Is there a number I can call to get this fixed before my flight tomorrow at 5 am?

As of 6 17 2021 Colombia is still requiring that the online immigration form be filled out. According to JjBee62 who states the following.

"There have been some changes to the form. You can now fill it out up to 48 hours before. It also asks if you're vaccinated, along with several other questions. Still is pretty quick and easy to do. ".

I just returned last weekend and this is absolutely correct. Fairly quick and easy to use but be sure to do it before you get in line at the airport in case something screws up. Leaving this last time I had zero signal in the airport leaving Barranquilla and had to let everyone pass me until I could get some signal and fill out the app. I was the last one to board and thought I was going to have to stay there and change flights. It was literally that bad.

I am in Medellin and I have used in the past, the IDme office located across the SantaFe mall, in Poblado. They are conveniently located and charge only 50 K cops. However this time around, they are not taking walk-ins. They require that one calls and set up an appointment. Their number is 604-6646.

Unlike the last post where I said "Scroll down until you see Entry and Exit Requirements" Don t scroll down and just read the first paragraph in the main body of the page.

Fun Luver. Yes, the antigen (or other) test is a requirement to enter the US on an airplane, along with a form to attest that you had the test. I expect Biden to change that soon to entice people to get the vaccine. The problem I see with that is the vaccine card can be counterfeited very easily.

Thanks to both of you for the replies. I did scroll down the Embassy page before and but I don't remember seeing the requirements for re-entry to the States.

Best Regards to this board because between everyone there is a Fountain of information available from all.

Be safe and have a blast.

So I will be traveling to the coastal region the 1st of July. I've been seeing all the follow-up posts about no need for the PCR test to enter but what I haven't seen is: do we still need the Antigen test to return to the States?

Have fun and be safe.
