Did you know? Colombia
In September 2018, at the inaugural eID Forum, the Colombian passport was crowned the most secure passport in the world. That booklet most travelers tuck away without a second glance is engineered like a vault: embossed and fluorescent holograms that are almost impossible to forge, a machine-readable zone, and since 2015 an embedded chip storing the holder's fingerprints and photo. A scannable barcode pushes each citizen's data straight to airport migration servers before they reach the desk. For a document carried by 53 million people, it quietly outranked far wealthier nations on pure security engineering.
- Passport security In September 2018 the Colombian passport was recognized as the world's most secure passport at the first eID Forum, thanks to its embossed and fluorescent anti-forgery holograms.
- Biometric chip Since September 2015 every Colombian passport carries an embedded chip storing the holder's fingerprints, photo and personal data, with a barcode that uploads details to airport migration servers in advance.
- Travel access As of 2025 the Colombian passport ranked 39th on the Henley Passport Index, granting visa-free or visa-on-arrival entry to roughly 132 destinations.
- Citizenship Under Article 96 of the 1991 Constitution, a Colombian by birth can never be stripped of nationality, so acquiring a second passport never costs them their Colombian identity.
- Currency origin The Colombian peso replaced the Spanish colonial real in 1837 at a rate of one peso to eight reales, and was only later decimalized into 100 centavos.
- Vanished coin The peso is still officially divided into 100 centavos, but runaway inflation ended all centavo minting back in 1984, leaving the subdivision purely theoretical.
- Emeralds Colombia accounts for an estimated 70-90% of the world's emerald market, and its Muzo mine yielded the 11,000-carat Fura emerald, the second-largest ever found.
- Biodiversity Colombia is one of Earth's most biodiverse nations and hosts more bird species - over 1,900 - than any other country on the planet.
- Many names Since declaring independence on 20 July 1810, the country has changed its official name seven times before settling on the Republic of Colombia.
