If you need an apostille for an FBI background check while living in Colombia, you've likely come across two options: Monument Visa and OnCallColombia.
Both companies are trusted by expats and travelers. But depending on where you're located and how much support you want, one may fit your needs better.
Monument Visa: Efficient and Streamlined
Monument Visa offers a highly automated system: upload your FBI background check online and receive your apostille certificate in about 10 business days. Their platform is clean, fast, and self-service. For those comfortable navigating the process on their own, it's a solid, proven option.
OnCallColombia: Human Support Every Step of the Way
At OnCallColombia, we take a different approach.
We work with U.S. citizens based in Colombia who often need more than just document processing. Whether you're applying for a visa, updating Migración paperwork, or handling legal residency, our clients value personalized, bilingual support — via WhatsApp, not just email.
When you work with us, you're not just filling out a form and hoping for the best. You get:
- Direct access to a local support team
- Reminders, updates, and check-ins throughout the process
- The ability to ask questions in plain English (or Spanish)
We're available when you need clarity, and we guide you through every step.
What's the Same?
Both Monument Visa and OnCallColombia:
- Offer apostille-only service for FBI background checks
- Deliver a scanned apostille in roughly 10 business days
- Walk documents into the U.S. Department of State rather than mailing them
Where We Differ
While Monument Visa offers a smooth automated experience, many expats choose OnCallColombia for the human support and local presence:
- Real-time WhatsApp communication — you're never left wondering where your documents are
- A team operating in both Washington, D.C. and Colombia, so coordination is faster and more transparent
- If you haven't even started yet, our Full VIP service covers everything from fingerprinting to FBI submission, apostille, and certified translation
