About Consulate General of Colombia in Miami
The Consulate General of Colombia in Miami is at 280 Aragón Avenue, Coral Gables, Florida 33134. Its jurisdiction does not automatically cover the whole state: the official page lists 17 southern Florida counties, while the Orlando consulate publishes the counties in central and northern Florida. To identify the correct office, compare your county of residence with those lists rather than choosing the nearest major city.
The office handles passports, national ID cards, identity cards, civil registrations, authentications, powers, minors’ exit permissions, residence certificates and nationality procedures. For ID cards, the photograph is taken at the office and the page asks applicants to wear dark clothing covering the shoulders. Passport requirements differ for adults and minors; children must attend with the required birth documents and follow the published formalities.
Routine service requires an appointment. Since September 8, 2026, published general hours are Monday to Friday, 8 a.m.–2 p.m.; document collection is 8 a.m. to noon. New appointments open at 10 a.m. each business day for the next working day, using facial recognition. Appointments are free, personal and non-transferable; the consulate allows document collection and life certificates without a booking. Visa applications are online.
The portal asks visitors to keep the appointment confirmation on their phone and says entry is not allowed more than 20 minutes early. The office accepts debit or credit card except where a procedure explicitly says otherwise. Check the specific procedure and bring originals: there is no single universal checklist for passports, notarial acts and civil registrations. The office also sets its own collection deadlines for issued documents.
Reviews on the exact Google Maps listing show varied experiences: some users mention quick handling of particular procedures and professionalism, while others describe waiting or a different visit. This guide does not turn one account into a rule; it explains why an appointment, complete paperwork and time to spare belong in the plan. We also found a government-source difference on island territories: Miami’s jurisdiction page names Bermuda, while an office directory names the Bahamas; residents there should confirm their assignment directly with the Foreign Ministry.
