Connecting through another country?

This page covers a direct flight to Bolivia. If your route connects through a third country, that country may require its own transit visa — sometimes even for a short stop inside the airport between flights (a layover). Transit rules depend on your specific routing, so check the country you connect through separately, or analyse your full itinerary.

What to know before you go

Freedom of Movement for Bolivia

INFO

No visa required for entry to Bolivia. Stays of up to 90 days are permitted under the visa-waiver agreement.

Check your phone coverage abroad

INFO

You're travelling to Bolivia (BO). Your home cellular plan may or may not include data abroad — check your carrier's international options before you fly. An eSIM is a low-commitment alternative if your plan doesn't cover the destination or charges high roaming rates.

US travel advisory: Bolivia — Level 2 (Exercise Increased Caution)

INFO

The US State Department publishes these advisories for your route. Bolivia: Level 2 — Exercise Increased Caution (as of 2026-04-28). Review the country page for the specific areas and risks flagged before you go. This is a US State Department safety perspective, not an entry or boarding rule — it doesn't affect whether you can board, only what to be aware of on the ground. Travellers from other countries should also check their own government's advisory.

Malaria-endemic destination: Colombia (CO)

INFO

Your itinerary touches Colombia (CO), where malaria transmission occurs. Transmission is often region-limited within a country (e.g. coastal vs highland zones) and varies by season. Discuss prophylaxis with a travel medicine clinician — the right antimalarial depends on the specific region, your medical history, and any medications you take.

High-altitude stop at BOG (~2548m)

INFO

Your itinerary touches BOG at ~2548m (~8360ft). Above ~2500m / 8200ft, roughly a quarter of unacclimated visitors experience some acute mountain sickness symptoms (headache, shortness of breath, fatigue) within the first day. Plan a slower first 24-48 hours, hydrate, and avoid alcohol on arrival. People with heart, lung, or sickle-cell conditions, and pregnant travellers, should discuss with a clinician before booking — some itineraries warrant prophylactic acetazolamide or a route change.

Andean Community - travel freely across Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru

INFO

Your CO citizenship lets you travel between the four Andean Community member states - Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru - using only a national identity document, under the Andean Migration Statute (Decision 878, 2021). You may enter as a tourist without a visa or passport for up to 90 days per entry - extendable to a maximum of 180 days in any 365-day period - and the Statute also frames residence and working in another member state. Carry your national ID card; a passport also works.

Andean ID-card travel is your right - carry your national ID

WARN

Andean Community citizens travel between member states on a national ID card, but air carriers may default to passport rules. Carry your national ID card and passport, and reference Andean Community Decision 503 if an agent applies standard entry requirements.
