I have had a great experience with expatgroup who helped me to now obtain a nomad visa. A very professional and friendly company who ensured all the documents required were completed correctly, then began the request on my behalf and received a successful result. I definitely recommend!
I most recently used Expat for my visa application as a digital nomad and Sara was of great help assisting me with my process – patient, attentive and always available to help. I just got my visa approved today. Thank you so much Sara and Expat Group, keep up the excellent work!
My wife and I used Expat Group for our Digital Nomad Visa’s.
They were Excellent. Truly, excellent.
They took all the hassle out of the process, communicated with us superbly, arranged pretty much everything…all we had to do was arrive at the appointment!
We did this process ourselves the year before this, and have to say, why did we do that!
We’ll use them again when we have to renew.
Huge Thank You to the Expat Group Team!
Expatgroup has been very good to work with. They have handled everything promptly and thoroughly. I would recommend using them for any of your visa needs.
This is my second time using Expat Group to support me with my visa. The first was a Student Visa, and this time around it’s for the Digital Nomad Visa. The agents are extremely helpful, and provide excellent communication and guidance. Thank you!
This is my second time using Expat Group. I applied for a Student Visa last year to study Spanish. This year I applied for the Digital Nomad Visa. Both of the agents provided clear communication and guidance. I am very happy with their service, and I recommend them to everyone. Thank you for helping me with my visa!
expatgroup helped me acquire a digital nomad visa with minimal fuss and effort on my part. They provided a list of documents I needed, reviewed all my paper work for me. They were responsive and helpful with any concerns or questions I had. I would use them again.
We had a unique situation where we needed to review 20+ in-process event visa applications due to lots of issues. Expatgroup discussed & worked with us to help define the work at an acceptable price. We are very happy with the results as the reports (22!) were thorough, detailed, clear & completed the same week the documentation was submitted. The guidance has been very helpful to us in planning our next steps. I also used expatgroup.co to obtain my marriage visa in 2022, after several failed attempts on my own. Highly recommended.
Mi experiencia con el equipo de Expatgroup fue maravillosa de principio a fin, gracias a la atención especializada y cordial de la asesora comercial Hazel González pude despejar todas mis dudas y empezar con mi proceso de solicitud de Visa, agradecida infinitamente con las especialistas Karen Valencia y Maria Angelica por su amable colaboración durante todo mi proceso de aplicación a la Visa, ahora de manera satisfactoria y gracias al equipo de Expatgroup puedo cumplir mi sueño de vivir en Colombia.
Recomiendo al 100% los servicios de Expatgroup, ellos saben lo que hacen, son muy profesionales y atentos, te ayudaran a cumplir el objetivo de obtener tu Visa.
I have now used the services of Expat Group three times. They helped me with my first resident visa, a passport renewal, and finally a resident visa renewal. Every time, they have been incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional. They also successfully completed each of the processes. Their work has saved me so much time, effort, and stress. Thank you!
Expat Group was highly organized and professional from start to finish during the application for my Digital Nomad Visa. They provided detailed instructions along the way and provided additional recommendations for documentation. The application and approval went smoothly and they organized my Cedula appointment. I will be using Expert Group moving forward for my visas.
Before deciding whether to do my visa on my own or use a service, I did a lot of homework. While it is possible to do it yourself, there is much room for error without actual knowledge, which would be very time-consuming. So after looking at various agencies I settled on Expatgroup.co and was extremely satisfied.
I saved a tremendous amount of time and frustration by letting the experts do it for me. I will not hesitate to use them in the future, and I encourage those who are thinking about what to do to give them a try. You will find it worth the investment
Expatgroup.co has been very helpful in this confusing process. They have answered all of my questions in a timely fashion and are always courteous.
Karen was the best and so helpful. When it came time to renew my M1 visa I just didn’t want to go through all the hoops on my own like I did the first time. Karen made the process so fast and easy, she was always on top of any deadline and gave me plenty of time to gather the documents I needed. After a successful visa process, I wonder why I didn’t go to expatgroup the first time. This much i know, I will be using their service from here on out for all my visa and business related needs here in Colombia. Thank you so much Karen, it was a pleasure working with you.
Sergio and the rest of the in expatgroup were extremely professional, very helpful and very efficient. They handled the visa application process very and explained everything clearly. They made the process as fast and as easy as possible and they do very good job in responding to consular inquiries in your behalf. I highly recommend using their service if you ever need to apply for a colombia visa! Thanks expatgroup!
muy eficientes
Excellent, prompt service
Expat Group has helped me obtain the Nomad Visa quickly and easily. They are always willing to help and answer questions promptly. The entire team is supportive, and I highly recommend their services.
Expat Group me ha ayudado a obtener la Visa Nomad de forma rápida y muy fácil. Siempre están dispuestos a ayudar y responder preguntas con rapidez. Todo el equipo me apoya y recomiendo sus servicios.
I first learned of Medellin Guru in 2020 via the web while searching for information on obtaining a
Colombian Resident visa. I do not know the mechanism whereby Medellin Guru and Expatgroup.co
collaborate but I understand the Expatgroup handles the visa process on behalf of Medellin Guru.
Medellin Guru offers numerous services including visa service, real estate translations, health insurance,
legal matters and etc. Additionally, the agency publishes an on-line information source that is quite
valuable. I only have experience with the visa service, but the newsletter is very useful, as I will explain
later.
My first experience was in August 2020 when I contacted Medellin Guru about applying for a Colombian
Resident visa. I am married to a Colombiana (for nearly 50 years) and we established residence in Santa
Marta. We are both retired and have one son that was born in Colombia in 1983. Expatgroup
fascinated the visa process and provided valuable assistance throughout the process. The required
paper work can be overwhelming but the staff of Expatgroup know the process and submit papers that
meet the requirements of Colombian authorities. It would be difficult for one to do this without their
assistance. My first Resident via was granted without two weeks after submitting the required papers.
This was in August 2020. Shortly after this Colombian authorities passed new regulations in October
2020 that requires all visas issued prior to October 2020 to be reissued. I would not have learned about
this requirement without the assistance of the Expatgroup newsletter. I contracted Expatgroup services
again and they successfully obtained a new Resident Visa within a few weeks.
The costs for Expatgroup services are not excessive, taking into account if one attempted to do this
alone, you would require visits to Bogota, stand in line at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to submit the
paperwork and again return to collect your passport. I highly recommend the services of both Medellin
Guru and Expatgroup to any non-Colombian for visa services. Additionally, I recommend that one
subscribe to both Medellin Guru and Expatgroup newsletters,, both are very useful.
Mis felicitaciones al equipo! Karen y el resto de compañeros han sido excepcionales y profesionales en todo el proceso. Uno está tranquilo con ellos y siempre están disponibles para atender dudas. Los recomiendo totalmente!
Very happy with Expat, their expeditious way of moving my application was very professional and dedicated. I tried to get my Visa with other people and failed, they are the ones, anybody should use. Thank you Expat
I worked with expatgroup in 2022 to get my visa and the process was smooth and fast. They are always so attentive to answering any of my questions and are very knowledgeable about all the requirements needed. I always feel like I am in good hands with them, and I will be working with them again when it is time to renew my visa.
The best company. i will do it again karen was so helpful professional
I used the service to get a digital nomad visa and everything went incredibly well! They were very supportive and clear about what documents I needed and the process went very smoothly! Recommend 10 out of 10!
My wife and I had our passports renewed through the expat group. I can’t say enough of their professionalism and customer care in the handling of such important documents. Their expedited and professional handling of this process gave us a much needed assurance and peace of mind. They are now in the process of transferring my Resident visa. They are very detail oriented in their work which gives us great confidence and peace of mind. In the current visa transfer process they have gone above and beyond in their communication with me which assures me that they care for their clients.
Great team to work with. My friend successfully got his digital nomad visa and insurance. Prompt answers from the team. I’m in the process for mine and hopeful it will soon be complete. Cheers.
It has been very nice to work with Medellin Guru. They are very nice and helpful. They respond very quickly and took care for my visa application in a seamless way. If you need to apply for visa application, I highly recommend using their professional service. It very much worth it and saves you a lot of time. Hazel and the rest of the team have been very supportive and helpful throughout the process.
Tuve una excelente experiencia para el trámite de la visa estudiantil. Fueron parte del proceso y le dieron seguimiento a mi caso completamente. Se sentía como si la solicitud fuera de ellos y no mía. Muy profesionales, responsables y se toman el tiempo de explicarte los procesos muy detalladamente. Los recomiendo 100%
Straight forward, professional,
Hola, el Señor Jaime Aristizábal y su asesora Hazel me han permitido de desbloquear mi situación. Sin ellos estaba completo bloqueado para conseguir un documento médical de aptitud psico físico que estaba buscando sin resultado.
Servicio de óptima calidad, super rápido y eficiente.
Felicitaciones. Le recomendó
This is my Second time working with Expatgroup, Zamantha did an awesome job the process was very smooth.. I will continue to used expatgroup for all my Visa needs they never disappoint !! Thank You Expatgroup
I would like to take this opportunity to Thank the Expatgroup it’s been Great working with you for a 2nd time you never disappoint 👍
Since arriving in May of 2023 expatgroup has been paramount in expediting my purchase of a house and guiding me through the process of a matrimonial visa, today Feb 3,2024 I purchased the visa, and will forever be grateful for everyone who was involved from start to finish
I have gone through other visa companies before knowing about expat group and have stuck with them since, they’ve been the most professional agency I have dealt with to get my visa. I recommend them to friends who are interested in moving to Colombia or staying for longer than 6 months. In the past Santiago was very helpful and currently dealing with Suad, Johanna and David to renew my investor visa has been a pleasure and they take care of each step for me with great attention to detail. I am always confident that as long as I present them with the correct documents, they really take the time to make sure I have the best chance of receiving approval for my visa / renewal requests with Migración Colombia. I would recommend Expatgroup to friends and family and will continue using them as my go to visa agency. 5 stars.
I am extremely happy that ExpatGroup exists to help extranjeros in Colombia! They helped me obtain an Digital Nomad Visa and have been very helpful as I navigate other extended visa options as well. I recommend their services to anyone searching for the same.
If I could make one suggestion for anyone considering the Nomad Visa – due to the way the government migration offices function, it will work most smoothly if you are (1) ready to apply quickly; and (2) already in Colombia on a tourist or other visa. Ask the ExpatGroup pros for specifics!
Excellent support with the application of a Digital Nomad Visa. Fast turn around. Thank you Sara.
A valuable resource here for expats in Medellin. Good to have this saved info on hand for important things needed in Medellin. Hazel has been a pleasure to work with also. No pressure and always available to assist. Good working team.
My daughter lives in Colombia and has engaged the expatgroup for help with visas. The expatgroup has always been quick to respond, very thorough in providing information, clear on instructions providing easy to understand explanations for complicated processes. I recently engage with Suad to discuss processes regarding real estate purchasing and M4 Visa. She was all that I described above, extremely helpful in walking me through a complex process, and very generous with her time. Overall great experience!
ExpactGroup es lo mejor que me pudo pasar, muchas felicidades por su aniversario y gracias por su gran servicio!
Great group of professionals, after speaking with them I feel very confident about the visa process.
I have spoken a few times with the lawyers from the expatgroup, every time they have been very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I always leave the meeting with a sense of releave that the process will work very smoothly.
Felicidades a expatgroup por su Quinto Aniversario!!.
Fue de gran ayuda poder contar con ustedes para obtener Visa tipo V (Nomada Digital) ya que desde un inicio tuve el mayor apoyo y rapidez para concluir con el trámite. Siempre atentos y cordiales antes cualquier duda inclusive, despues de haber obtenido la Visa. 100% recomendables!!!
When I retired to Colombia last year I used an accountant recommended by a friend to help me with my Visa application. It was expensive, time consuming and frustrating.
As my Visa came up for renewal, I contacted the ExpatGroup and was introduced to Hazel Gonzales. Hazel has been very helpful and responsive to my questions. She is knowledgeable and went out of her way to clear up a problem with my health insurance. At every step, it was clear that Hazel had done this before. Her experience made my renewal much easier and I would recommend Hazel and the Expatgroup to any expat needing help with moving to Colombia.
I was a little leery on how I would go about obtaining a Colombian visa so I just want to help someone else feel more at ease than I did. I like to express my gratitude to the Expat group team for helping me obtain my visa and cédula here in Colombia . Their expertise, experience and professionalism is well appreciated. In fact this was my third application that the expat group team submitted for me, which all had been approved. My first Visa was a retirement visa. Some time after I had gotten married I called the expat group team to consult me on the difference between in a retirement visa and a marriage visa. Free of course.. We decided that the marriage visa was more beneficial for me. I also have had other companies consultations of this process and let me just say… The expat Group Team is second to none (which includes price fees, and knowledge of the process)
I look forward to obtaining my residency here in Colombia and of course contracting The Expat Group team to help me with this process.
I have been a client of expat group for 5 years. My visa needs have been met with professionalism and courtesy. I highly recommend expat group for any and all services that these professionals provide.
After researching for a company to assist obtaining a visa I contacted Expat Group. Most of my research was through Medellin Guru and their newsletters. I was contacted by Hazel and found her attention to my questions and patience with so many of them refreshing. There is no doubt that Expat Group will make my visa application go smoothly. After looking at the options to do the process myself, Expat Group was understandably my best option. I am very happy with their service and the prompt attention to answering my many questions which seem to be endless.
Felicidades!! expat group… 100% recomendado, en su cinco aniversario exitoso en ayudarnos a los extranjeros para establecernos en este hermoso país de Colombia mi esposa Sofía y yo estamos sumamente agradecidos por el apoyo que nos brinda expat group co. no duden en contactar a expat group co. Cualquier tramite legal en visas y pasaportes entre otros servicios más… contacten a expat group co. No se arrepentirán ; )
From my initial appointment, Expatgroup was attentive in keeping me updated throughout the process. Andrea C was there for me in explaining and assisting with forms, as well as video appointments, which I enjoyed. I love their step-by-step (handholding, in which I needed) approach. Their kindness (always very polite) is appreciated. The price and fees were affordable. I feel comfortable going forward and intend to continue using their services. Thank you
It’s been my good fortune to work with expatgroup for almost five years, and every contact has been positive, friendly, and professional. In my initial contact in 2019, I enlisted expatgroup’s services to obtain my initial M visa. Currently, I’m in the process of renewing that visa for the second time, in order to apply for a residence visa in the near future. Following my career as a reality television executive in Los Angeles, and my subsequent move to Cartagena, I considered starting a production company in Colombia. Of course, my first call was to expatgroup. They immediately provided a bullet-point proposal to set up an LLC, and handle the initial legal, governmental, and tax requirements. As a result of the pandemic, the project was shelved. Due to recent events in Cartagena’s El Centro Historico, I’m reconsidering the production company project, and I’ll consult with expatgroup again. I’ve strongly recommended expatgroup to every expat I’ve met who’s in need of immigration services. It’s not often you encounter a business that is so incredibly well run at every level.

I have recommended expatgroup to every expat I meet who’s in need of immigration services. It’s not often you encounter a business that is so well run at every level.
The process of getting permanent residency papers for my American fianceé has been made immeasurably simpler and a lot less daunting since working with ExPat Group. We want to thank the whole team, specially our main point of contact, Hazel, who made every step of the process straightforward and comprehensive. Thank you so much for the help and happy five years!!
Estoy muy agradecida con Expogroup especialmente a Karen y Lorena que me ayudaron con el trámite de mi visa tipo M fue realmente rápido en dos semanas ya tenía mi visa!!

Working with the Expatgroup.co for our digital nomad visa was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, the process was seamless and efficient, thanks to the dedicated and knowledgeable team for our Digital Nomad Visa, and our getting our Marriage certified!
We don’t know how we would have gotten this done without them! Each step was met with thorough explanations and timely responses, making the entire visa application experience a breeze. The assistance provided by the team, particularly Johanna, Santiago, and Sara, made all the difference, turning what could have been a daunting task into a straightforward and positive experience.

The efficiency, transparency, and personalized suppor have solidified our trust in the company.

I heard good things about Expatgroup. I am looking to apply for the Mercosur Visa in the next couple months. I met with them back in Nov. 2023. They have been very professional and looking forward to working with them to get my Visa.
After living in Alaska for over 50 years, my husband & I are greatly looking forward to a new chapter of life in a warmer climate. We are very excited to begin exploring the beautiful country of Colombia, & are so very glad we recently discovered the Expat Group. I have never enjoyed paperwork & the process of gathering documents, getting them translated & apostilled was grueling, so I know there is NO WAY we could go through the visa application process without assistance! It is such a relief to turn this task over to the Expat Group; this month marks the company’s 5th Anniversary, for good reason…They know how to make sure everything is done properly the first time, & they offered great pricing as well. When we get our visas & begin searching for our new home we will be consulting with them for help with the Real Estate paperwork, & it’s possible we might also utilize their services to start a business. Cheers to the next five years, Expat Group!!
Helped me out a lot with getting an insurance for the visa despite my medical history, very helpfull
Hola yo necesitaba renovar el pasaporte, no sabía cómo hacerlo porque me tocaba ir a Bogotá y una amiga me recomendó expatgroup.co, me han ayudado mucho y agradezco el servicio.
Expat group was easy to use when applying for my visa. They were very communicative and professional. I’ll definitely be using them when it’s time to renew. I’ve already referred a couple of other friends who’ve had equally great experiences. Thank you Expat Group!
They respond fast and get done what needs to get done.
Rapid, excellent, and professional service- the best in my 14 years in Latin America. Thank you
I used expat in the past to renew my United States passport and to renew my resident visa for Colombia and have been great
Very quick to respond to any queries I gave about visas! Would definitely recommend.
Excelente servicio. Rapido y confiable en muy poco tiempo te resuelven cualquier duda
Clear information, fast services and excellent results in all process realized. I am very happy and satisfied with the quality and efficiency of the services of Expatgroup. Great value for my money ! Thank you very much, I higtly recommend !!
Excellent service, highly recommended. Thanks guys
They are so reliable and professional with good staff members always around to help answer all your questions and very friendly. My favourite of them all is Hazel , she was assigned to my visa process and was super nice to me.
Expat Group helped me keep my family together in Colombia! Thank you so much for your fast and efficient services. We will continue to do our visas with you for the rest of time!
I used Expat Group to do the process of ‘re-validating’ the R visa I have had for many years. It seems like the visa had to be ‘renewed’ but the process was referred to as a transfer. Anyway, just another unavoidable government process to remind us we are all just slaves. I went into the process thinking Expat Group would overcharge and underdeliver, as this is what one comes to expect these days, especially when payment is made in USD. But I was very pleasantly surprised to learn throughout the process that this did not happen. Expat Group was very good at communicating quickly and with full disclosure. The process went pretty fast once they had the items they needed from me. The cost was slightly higher than using one of the local immigration consultants you can find near the office of Migracion in Belen, but it was worth it since the communication process was totally in English and they accept US credit cards for payment.
I made the mistake of trying to get my visa on my own, it was denied quickly because I had no idea what I was doing. I contacted and hired expatgroup.co to assist and from then on it was smooth sailing. They were great in helping get all my documentation and other requirements in order and my visas was approved soon after. Highly recommend using expatgroup.co, very happy with the service and results!
I have used Expat Group services several times to help with visa and related issues. They have been prompt,
handled questions professionally, and received the results that I was looking for. I trust their expertise
and hard work. And, I am using their services again.
Here we go again! It’s time to reapply for our M visa , and for the third time we didn’t hesitate to contact Expat Group. They have always answered our gazillions of questions, patiently guided us through the process, and celebrated with us when the visa was granted. We appreciate their knowledge, the way they work with us on a very personal level, and we trust them completely. Thank you to the whole team.
Feliz aniversario… Que Dios los siga bendiciendo. Gracias por ayudar a todas las personas que necesitamos ayuda en estos procesos, sigan con esa buena atención y facilidad de costos. Feliz aniversario y de antemano muchas muchas gracias.
Expatgroup es una gran opción para la realización de trámites de los extranjeros que residimos en Colombia. Desde hace varios años he trabajado con ellos y ha sido una excelente experiencia. Súper recomendados!!!
I found that the customer service, knowledge and efficiency is beyond approach and I highly recommend this service.
Expat Group are helping me with my application for a Digital Nomad visa. I’m very happy with their service as everyone has been friendly and helpful throughout the process. Communication is prompt and clear. I highly recommend their services.
Gran acompañamiento durante todo el proceso de mi visa nómada digital. Respondieron a tiempo todas mis dudas e hicieron que la información fuera facil de entender. Revisaron toda mi documentación previo al envío para garantizadar una mejor recepción del mismo.
I highly recommend Expat Group for their exceptional service and knowledgeable team. Grateful for their support!
I used expat group for tourist visa. They are very proactive and helpful. I would high recommend them for immigration needs.
In 2023 I utilized the services of Expatgroup.co to receive my Columbia retirement visa. The process was smooth and uncomplicated with the proffesional and knowledgeable services that were provided. When it is time to renew my visa I will be using there services again. One of the requirements for the visa is health insurance and I can’t say how much I appreciated Assist Card health insurance when I needed a surgery here in Colombia. Thank you Expat Group
Muchas gracias a ExpactGroup por la gestión de la visa de residente. Gracias en especial a Lorena y Hazel que me guiaron con los documentos a presentar y fueron muy atentas explicándome el proceso. También fueron muy claras con los costos de los trámites.
I tried myself 4 years ago to apply for my M visa while was in Colombia on the immigration website but it soon became apparent of the difficulties in doing it solo and eventually gave up.
I then researched online and saw various companies overcharging for this service until I saw Expats who offered the whole process at a fair and reasonable price so I went ahead with them.
They made it plain sailing and without any issues my visa and cedula was processed. I fully recommend Expats to help you to obtaining your visa!
We used expat group for our Rentista V visa and we are very happy with this company. In particular, David was extremely efficient and helpful. His style of communication was clear and open and he never took long to respond to my many questions. I highly recommend using Expat services and ask for David!
