After two months of a voluntary census, it was determined that a total of 43,843 people born in Venezuela remain in Bogotá irregularly, that is, without having their legal status defined.

However, the Government warns that this figure could be higher, given the voluntary nature of the characterization and because they continue to arrive in the country on a daily basis.

And if the 74.403 foreigners of the neighboring country who have special residence permits (PEP) to work in the capital were added, the total of irregular and regular Venezuelan migrants would reach 117,886 people.

According to the Administrative Registry of Venezuelan Migrants in Colombia, conducted at 59 registration points, the majority of Venezuelans who have not defined their situation are located in Santa Fe (4,569 people), Kennedy (4,036), Suba (3,873). and Fontibón (2,872).
