Autarchy SAS

Good for extending a tourist visa, not recommended for more advanced work. Unfortunately, this office was overwhelmed with my task. The structure proposed by the owner, Roger, was partly based on deception (fake fictitious bookings with other clients of Roger, a fake website for my company) and was described by a local law firm as highly dubious, with the corresponding potential consequences for me. As I later discovered, Roger's advice was patchy and contradictory from the very beginning, and in several cases even incorrect. His knowledge of the legal situation in Colombia is elementary, his social network weak, and his comprehension sometimes questionable. After some time, the advice was limited in one case to watching YouTube videos, or in another case stopped altogether, leaving me to fend for myself. This then led to the decision to terminate the business relationship. The bureaucracy in Colombia is very complex. In my experience, it is advisable to engage a very well-connected and competent local consultant who sees you as a valuable customer, rather than a foreigner who sees this activity only as his personal pastime.

We used them for my visa and they were great, they spoke English and Spanish. They completed everything while we were in Canada and then when I arrived in Colombia I went for my Cedula and 10 days later I picked it up.
