M - Retirement Visa

As we have mentioned in previous blogs, to retire in Colombia is one of the best choices you could make, regarding your finances and keeping a great high quality lifestyle, that is exactly why this is one of the most popular Colombian Visa Types.

The Colombia Retirement Visa requires you to prove income of at least three times the minimum wage from a stable government source, this means you must have a monthly income of $3,900,000 COP for 2024.

With the possibility of reapplying, the Colombian Retirement Visa allows you to apply for a  Colombian Residency after holding it for five years. 

To keep the Colombian Retirement Visa you must not stay outside of Colombia for more than six continuous months and it is important to note that this is one of the Colombian visa types that allows you to obtain benefits such as a “cédula de extranjería” or Colombian ID, but does not allow you to work in Colombia.
