Answer
I do not know exactly what is required, as there may be circumstances and requirements unique to your situation. I recommend you call the Colombian Embassy or Consulate in the United States. They are generally very helpful and should be able to provide you with all the information you need.

Here is a link to the contact information for the various Embassies and Consulates in the United States...

Expertise

I can answer questions in English and Spanish on nearly anything relative to visiting Colombia. I can be particularly helpful for visitors to Bogota and visitors interested in buying Colombian emeralds during their travels. I can answer questions on how to apply for a business visa and offer a contact to help with the process.

Experience

I have visited Cali, Medellin, Pereira, Bogota, Cartagena, Villavicencio, el Parque de Cafe, and Santa Fe de Antioquia several times before moving to Bogota. I speak Spanish and English fluently, I have gone through the process of getting a business visa and cedula de extranjeria. I have several reputable contacts in the emerald trade and work with them myself. I have close contact with an adventure tour operator that knows every inch of Colombia.
