One of the main doubts that arise daily among citizens who want to process the visa is the price of the document. The concern increased when the increase in some products and services this year became known.

For the above, from the United States Embassy in Colombia they clarified all the information.
They assured that this value has not increased and remains at $160. What must be taken into account is that this price, when converted to Colombian pesos, can vary, since it depends on the rate at which the US currency is found.
For example, this Tuesday the dollar closed at $4,546, so the processing fee is around 727,360 pesos. That same price applies to students, doctors, journalists or exchange visitors.
Remember that there are different types of visa: tourist and visitor; business; job; studies and exchanges; immigration and others.
Now, the visa categories based on petitions, for which temporary workers, people transferred within the company, athletes, artists and religious workers apply, have a price of 190 dollars, the equivalent of about 874 thousand Colombian pesos.
Finally, the fiancé or spouse category visa of a United States citizen has a value of 265 dollars, an approximate value of 1,200,000 pesos.
On the official website of the embassy you can find a guide if you have questions about what type of document you should request.
