Colombia has announced plans to issue special stay permits to the guardians of over 270,000 migrant minors from Venezuela currently residing in the country with a Temporary Protection Permit. The aim of these permits is to facilitate the integration of these guardians into Colombian society, enabling them to seek employment and access government services.
Migration Colombia's director, Fernando García, highlighted the significance of these permits during a press conference. He emphasized that the permits would regularize the legal representatives or custodians of the Venezuelan children and adolescents, granting them a Colombian identification document. This document will enable them to access various social and financial services provided by the State, particularly in the areas of health and education for both minors and adults.
