Andy S

We are so very happy with Colombian Visa Services and Daniela! Years ago we were able to do our documents ourselves and it was so easy. As the years went, we had to get help with different visa services. The last we had was really not efficient and let my wife's documents lapse and it was a 6 month nightmare to get everything fixed. Daniela really KNEW what she was doing, was super helpful and professional and was so eager to help! My wife's renewal came in the VERY NEXT DAY! I highly recommend Colombian Visa Services to anyone who needs help getting or renewing their documents! Fast! Efficient! Knowledgeable! And very reasonably priced! And best of all, Daniela speaks English perfectly!

Learn more about what you need to obtain a Colombian Visa and how we can help.

How Fast Can You Get Married in Colombia?

The process of getting married in Colombia can be relatively quick, but the timeline may vary depending on individual circumstances and the specific requirements of the local authorities. Generally, it can take as little as 15 days if you already have all of your documentation.

However, suppose you don't have your documentation. In that case, you'll need to obtain a recent copy of your birth certificate, a certificate of no marriage and have these documents officially apostilled and translated. In this case the process of obtaining your documents alone can take weeks.
