Can I help my friend get a Colombian passport from the USA?
Upvote:8
I urge you to be extremely careful here, and to follow the advice given elsewhere to think carefully about if the request is legitimate or a scam.
If you are certain of your friend's identity and conclude that you do indeed want to help them pay for a passport, you can indeed to so by credit card. According to the step-by-step instructions on the Colombian government's website, you must go to https://tramites.cancilleria.gov.co/apostillalegalizacion/pago/inicioPagoTC.aspx, enter the payment reference number created when your friend applies for their passport, and follow the further instructions there. Note that the URL ends in .gov.co, so you can be sure it is a Colombian government website and not some imposter. Given the existence of this site, be especially wary for requests for funds by Western Union or some other non-refundable, non-traceable method.
The cost for a Colombian passport issued in Bogotá is 169,000 Colombian Pesos as of this writing, plus an additional 2,200 pesos for paying by credit card, a total of just over US$45 at current exchange rates. Again, be especially wary of claims that you will have to pay significantly more than this.
