Colombia/Colombian Citizen
Expert: MRZ - 10/18/2010
QuestionI was born in Medellin but moved to the States at age 10. A couple of years ago I went to Colombia and had problems because they asked for my Colombian passport but when I because a US citizen I failed to get dual citizenship so they said that if I was born in Colombia I had to have a Colombian passport, is this true? IF so, does this mean I can't travel to Colombia till I have a Colombian Passport? How do I apply for a Colombian passport and what are the requirements? I was told this was a new law. Thank you.
