Colombia and Venezuela have become two nations with close economic, political and migratory ties. The long, porous and difficult border they share has served as a bridge for both countries to intertwine. With the arrival of Chavism to power in Venezuela in 1995, several changes began in the political and economic system of this country, which implied a new chapter for relations with Colombia. Given this panorama, it is pertinent to analyze to what extent this new political program affected those built on the common border. Who are the Colombians who migrate? What are their main motivations? Do Venezuelans migrate to Colombia? These are some of the questions addressed by the document and will be done from the perspective of the change of power in Venezuela and Colombia. Likewise, it is intended to establish to what extent both countries in the period 1999- 2015 impacted binational migration. The results show that migration between both nations is dynamic, that people on each side of the border are sensitive to economic and political variations between the two countries.
