The Colombian Identity Card (Шаблон:Lang-es, Шаблон:IPA-es, also known as Cédula de Ciudadanía) is the identity document issued to Colombian citizens by local registry offices in Colombia and diplomatic missions abroad to every Colombian person over 18 years of age, while for minors it is the "Tarjeta de Identidad”. This is the only valid identification document for all civil, political, administrative and judicial acts according to Colombian Law 39 of 1961.[1] They are produced and issued by the National Civil Registry.[2]

History

On November 24, 1952, the first Citizenship Certificate was issued to the then President of the Republic, Laureano Gómez Castro, with number 1.[3] Later, in 1954, women were able to exercise the right to elect and be elected. The first female identity card was issued on May 25, 1956, to Doña Carola Correa de Rojas Pinilla, wife of the then President of Colombia, General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, with the number 20,000,001. This document was called "Blanca Laminada.”

In 1993 a brown plastic identification card was produced. Information on the previous identification card such as skin color and signs was removed, and information on blood type, the citizen's sex and a barcode was added. Since May 2000, the identity document "Amarilla con hologramas" (yellow with holograms) has been produced, based on AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification Identification System) technology. Along with this format, two others circulated (white and brown), either of which was recognized as a legitimate means of citizen identification.

In 2003, the format of the PIN (Personal Identification Number) was changed. Previously, a person had an identity card number and was later assigned a different one upon turning 18. In the aforementioned year, an alphabetical complement to the identity card number began to be used. Later, in 2004, the NIP system was changed to the NUIP (Unique Personal Identity Number) that identifies a single citizen throughout their life; the numbering begins with the number 1.000.000.000. Citizens who were issued an identity card before 2003 kept the same number.

In 2005, and after a series of bureaucratic and technical problems, the National Registry of Civil Status of Colombia, through a decree, determined that as of January 1, 2010, the only valid identity documents would be those issued since 2000, which was the yellow one with holograms. This date was later postponed to July 31, 2010.

In 2020, a new electronic identity document was announced, which began to be issued on December 1 of the same year. The document allows citizens to identify themselves and carry out procedures without the need for a physical document. The electronic document can be stored on any smartphone device through the National Civil Registry’s app, available on Android and iOS devices.Шаблон:Citation needed

Obtaining a citizen card

Colombian citizens can obtain a citizen card by presenting themselves at a Colombian registry or consular office with a previous form of identification, such as a birth certificate, letter of naturalization, resolution of registration if Colombian by adoption, or “tarjeta de identidad,” which is a form of identification given to minors. The person obtaining a citizenship card must be at least 18 years old. Other requirements include providing three 4 cm x 5 cm color photographs of the individual against a white background, however, some registry offices within Colombia may not require this. It is also necessary to provide blood type and RH factor. If the individual is bald or has light-colored hair, the photos must be taken against a blue background. The service is free of charge if the individual is getting the citizen card for the first time. Those who request duplicates due to theft, incorrect information, loss or damage must provide the same information and also pay a fee of COP $55,750.

This document is mandatory for all Colombian citizens over 18 years of age who reside in Colombia and for those seeking consular assistance abroad.

After the procedure, a provisional document called “contraseña” (English: password) is delivered that has the citizen's photo, fingerprint, name and the NUIP (unique personal identification number). The delivery time of the document varies, ranging from one to three months depending on the office where the procedure is done.

Military and police authorities may require the document. The national police code defines in article 35, literal 3 that: "The following behaviors affect the relationship between people and authorities and therefore should not be carried out. Its performance will give rise to corrective measures: (...) Prevent, hinder, hinder or resist the identification or individualization procedure, by the police authorities".[4] A general fine of type 4 is imposed; participation in a community program or educational activity of coexistence. However, not carrying the document is not considered a crime.

International travel

Holders of a Colombian identification document can enter without a passport in all member countries of the Union of South American Nations with the exception of Suriname, Guyana and Venezuela. This includes:

Identity card for foreigners

The identity document (cédula de ciudadanía) and the identity card are exclusively for Colombian citizens. There is an identity document for foreigners with long-term visas, the foreigner identity document (cédula de extranjería) issued by Colombia Migration as an identification document. This document allows the exercise of the rights to which the foreigner is entitled on Colombian soil, which are the same as the Colombian citizen, except to vote in elections and to run for government positions, and if the foreigner in question holds a resident visa, they are able to exercise their vote in municipal, district and council elections.

Foreign Identity Document (documento de identidad de extranjería/cédula de extranjería)

Файл:Documento de Identidad colombiano (Extranjeros).jpg
Front and back example of a foreign identity card of a person who has a resident visa.

The foreign identity document is issued by Colombia Migration to foreigners who will reside in the country for more than 90 days or have a migrant or resident visa. In specific cases it may be issued to foreigners with a visitor’s visa. This document can be issued to minors from age 7. In this case, the foreign identity document will have the annotation “menores de edad” under the cardholder’s photo. The numbering of the document is sometimes similar to those with citizenship cards and sometimes there are cases in which they have the same identification numbers, which can cause problems due to the duplication of information on Colombian databases.

This document does not provide information regarding place of birth and place of issue. Unlike the citizenship card, the date of issue changes every time the foreign identity card is renewed or when turning 18. The identification number on a foreign identity cards is assigned based on the Biographical Archive of Foreign Migration Colombia and is assigned as a “historial de extranjero” (foreign record) at the time of issuing a safe-conduct or starting any administrative process, or at the time of the individual’s first visa registration by the Foreign Ministry.
