Immigration
Departures from Panama
The captain will collect all passports at the start of the trip and arrange immigration for your exit from Panama. Your captain will hold onto the passports until your arrival to Colombia.
Immigration requires that each passenger brings a photocopy of their passport bio page and the page that contains your Panamanian entrance stamp. Please make sure you bring copies with you on the boat.
Your captain will deliver the passports to a maritime agent on arrival to Colombia, who completes all the paperwork for your entrance. The agent will return the passports to the captain with entrance stamps. This process normally takes several hours, but can be up to 24 hours, depending on the estimated wait time. In the meantime, you will be able to disembark the boat and check into your hostels. Your captain will confirm what time and where you can collect your passports.
Entering Colombia you do not be required to show proof of onward travel.
Please check if there are any special conditions of entry for your own passport (i.e. Canadian reciprocity tax).
