At Rada law firm we have provided the Researching genealogy in Colombia service for 17 years.

The primary sources for genealogy research in Colombia are government civil registration records and Catholic parish records, with an increasing number of these records being digitized (since 2010´s). However, many of these records in Colombia are still only available in their original physical form, requiring researchers to visit archives, churches, or government offices in person. This process can be time-consuming and cumbersome.

If your ancestors immigrated to Colombia from Spain or any other country, it is often necessary to conduct research in Colombia first to find information about their foreign hometown. This step is essential before moving on to researching in the ancestral country.

At Rada law firm, we understand the complexities of Colombian genealogy research, and our team of professional genealogists and lawyers is here to assist you. Our experts can help determine the town of origin of your ancestors in Colombia, locate its present-day equivalent, and identify the current storage location of records for that area. In cases where online or microfilm records are not available, our onsite agents can personally visit the relevant locations to retrieve any accessible documents.

Navigating the challenges of Colombian genealogy research requires patience, expertise, and a thorough understanding of the available resources. Our dedicated team at rada law firm is well-equipped to handle these demands and provide you with the information you need to uncover your Colombian ancestry.
