Can I open a Colombian bank account on a Tourist Visa?. I have to live in my home country Canada for 6 months every year (Health Care requirement) so was planning on just getting Tourist visas in Colombia every year (3 months then renew for 3 months). Next question is, how often can I renew a tourist visa OR if I do get a Residence Visa, how long within one year must I stay in Colombia ?
