Completing the Check Mig Colombia form is a mandatory step for all travelers entering or leaving Colombia. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the entire process, ensuring you complete your application correctly and efficiently.
The Check Mig form should be completed between 72 hours and 1 hour before your scheduled flight. However, it is strongly recommended to complete it at least 24 hours in advance to avoid any last-minute technical issues.
Before starting the Check Mig application process, gather all necessary information and documents to ensure a smooth experience. Having everything ready will help you complete the form quickly and accurately.
Make sure you have a stable internet connection and use a compatible browser. Google Chrome is recommended as it works best with the Check Mig website.

If you travel to Colombia frequently, consider creating a user account on the Check Mig platform. This allows you to save your information for future trips, making the process faster and more convenient.
To successfully complete the Check Mig form, you'll need to have the following documents ready:
Ensure all information matches exactly what appears on your passport and flight tickets. Discrepancies can lead to issues at immigration or even being denied boarding.
Follow these steps to complete your Check Mig Colombia application:
Visit the official Migración Colombia website at https://apps.migracioncolombia.gov.co/pre-registro/public/.
Important: Be cautious of unofficial websites that charge fees for this service. The official Check Mig form is completely free.
The website is available in Spanish, English, and French. Click on your preferred language to continue.
Note: Some users report that even when selecting English or French, certain dropdown menus may still appear in Spanish. Be prepared to use translation tools if needed.
Select whether you are entering Colombia or leaving Colombia.
Choose your mode of transportation:
For most travelers, "Air" will be the appropriate selection.
Provide your flight information:
Tip: If you can't find your flight number in the system, try entering only the numerical part without the airline code (e.g., "123" instead of "AA123").
Fill in your personal details:
Depending on your situation, you may need to provide:
Carefully review all information for accuracy. Once submitted, it can be difficult to make changes.
Click the submit button to complete your application.
After successful submission, you'll receive a confirmation with a PDF document or QR code via email.
Important: Save the document on your phone or print it out to present at the airport.
Issue: The Check Mig website may crash or freeze during the application process.
Solution: Start filling out the form as soon as you become eligible (72 hours before departure). This gives you time to try again if the site crashes. Clear your browser cache, try a different browser (preferably Google Chrome), or attempt during off-peak hours.
Issue: Your flight number cannot be found in the system.
Solution: Enter only the numerical part of the flight number without the airline code. For example, if your flight is AA123, enter only "123". If this doesn't work, check your itinerary for alternate flight numbers or contact your airline for the correct flight number.
Issue: After submission, you download a blank document.
Solution: Wait 1-2 minutes and try downloading again. Alternatively, return to the main website and use the "Consult and download your check-mig" button to retrieve your document. If problems persist, try using a different browser.
Issue: Some fields remain in Spanish despite selecting English or French.
Solution: Use an online translation tool to help navigate these sections. Common untranslated fields include country names and dropdown menus. If you're familiar with Spanish country names, this can help (e.g., "Estados Unidos" for United States, "Reino Unido" for United Kingdom).
Issue: You've submitted the form with incorrect information.
Solution: You'll need to submit a new form with the correct information. If you've changed your travel date, wait for the original arrival date to pass before resubmitting, as this can help clear the previous submission from the system.
Google Chrome tends to work best with the Check Mig website. Keep your browser updated to the latest version for optimal compatibility.
Complete the form as soon as the 72-hour window opens. This gives you time to address any technical issues that may arise.
Ensure all details match your passport and travel documents exactly. Even minor discrepancies can cause problems at immigration.
Save your confirmation PDF in multiple places: email, cloud storage, and on your phone. Consider taking a screenshot as a backup.
