About the Embassy

Message from the Ambassador

On behalf of all of us at the Canadian Embassy in Colombia, it's my pleasure to welcome you aboard our website. Our site complements the wide range of services already offered by our Embassy to Canadians, Colombians and citizens of other countries from around the world.

Our website describes the services we offer at the Embassy and contains a variety of information about Canada and Colombia. Whether you are a Canadian planning to visit Colombia, a Colombian wishing a visa for Canada, a student or researcher interested in either country, a Colombian or Canadian planning to export or invest, or you simply want to learn a bit more about either of our countries, our website will provide you with a wealth of information as well as a host of links to other relevant sites.

Canada and Colombia share a rich and dynamic relationship which continues to deepen as the Americas move steadily towards closer economic integration. We believe that this website will help to strengthen this relationship and further the understanding and cooperation between our citizens.

We hope that you will visit and explore this site often and we look forward to any comments or suggestions that you might have.

Matthew Levin
Ambassador
