You can make your appointment request only when you have made the first payment of the procedure and it will only be available the next business day while the payment is applied in the system. You can schedule the appointment here: https://pasaportesatlantico.gov.co/ passport/user/createAppointment/

Usually available appointments are two or three weeks away. Keep in mind that in high season there will be fewer appointments available due to the traffic of people carrying out this procedure.

When choosing the date and time, keep in mind the number that appears in parentheses example (4) this number indicates how many seats are available at that time. If you go with your family group and you want it to be at the same time, take into account the available seats.

Remember that the process is done one person at a time, that is, if you are going to process the passport of 3 people, you must make three different payments.

When scheduling the appointment you should receive an email. It may end up in your spam folder so check there too.
