When to Fill Out the Check-MIG Form

The Check-MIG form must be submitted within a specific window that’s set by Colombian immigration authorities.

Fill out and submit the form no earlier than 72 hours before your flight and no later than 1 hour before departure. Submitting earlier than 72 hours will result in an error. Waiting until the last hour can also be risky, especially if you encounter issues.

Complete the Check-MIG 24 to 48 hours before your flight to address any likely technical problems or corrections. Be sure that you have the confirmation well in advance.

The same 72-hour rule applies for departing and entering Colombia. The Check-MIG’s validity is tied to your travel dates. It has your latest health status and travel details.

Tips:

Setting a reminder for 3 days before your flight can help you manage this requirement without stress.

And if you’re using a service like ours, you can give your details earlier, and we will make sure that it’s submitted within the proper time frame. This way, you don’t have to bear the burden of remembering the exact submission window.
