South American migration policy for Venezuelans

Overview

Regional migration policies regarding Venezuelan citizens have seen recent administrative updates in Colombia and Chile.

In Colombia, Migración Colombia established a 60-day deadline for Venezuelan migrants to collect over 150,000 approved Temporary Protection Permits (PPT). Authorities stated that if these documents are not claimed by November 4, the permits will be destroyed and the regularization process will be considered abandoned. The PPT is essential for migrants to access legal residency, employment, healthcare, banking, and education.

In Chile, the government has authorized the use of a travel salvoconducto to allow Venezuelan citizens with expired passports to depart the country. This measure aims to resolve travel uncertainties for migrants who had purchased tickets but were unable to board due to document issues, following tensions at airports caused by a lack of consular relations between Chile and Venezuela. While the salvoconducto facilitates departure, authorities noted that individuals who entered Chile through unauthorized crossings will still face entry prohibitions.
