Users of Migración Colombia’s online notification platform SIRE (Sistema Integrado de Registro de Extranjeros) are not currently able to add a foreign national’s correct visa expiration date due to technical issues when submitting mandatory government notifications regarding the hiring or termination of foreign nationals.
Host companies and foreign nationals are advised to wait until it is absolutely necessary to file the notification within the 15-day period in order to allow time for the system issue to be fixed. As a result, foreign nationals who are switching employers may have their start date with the new employer delayed by a few days as they will not be able to submit a new visa application until their termination notification is complete.
Fragomen is monitoring the SIRE platform and following up with Migración Colombia. Fragomen will report on any relevant developments and contact affected clients with case-by-case advice.
