Question
I'm colombian citizen and USA resident as a legal Alien. I have to travel very rush to Colombia but my passport is due few days ago by date 03/30/2009. Can I trip to Colombia with it? or Do I have to revenue it before travel? In addition I can tell you that I have Colombian id "Cedula".

Answer
Hi Leo,
You do have to renew your passport to travel. You have to do it at your nearest Colombian Consulate, you need to take your cedula, 2 copies of your cedula, your old passport, a copy of the picture page of your passport, 3 pics (you can get these done next to the consulate) and a money order for $117 dollars.
If you have any other question you can reach us directly at info@colombianpossibilities.com
Thanks
