Cedula, Health insurance, Fine with the New regulation of the Human Mobilty Act (August 2017)

7 years ago

On August 3rd, President Lenin Moreno signed presidential decree No. 111 which includes the Regulation of the Human Mobility Act (Ley Orgánica de Movilidad Humana). The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ecuador will exercise the stewardship of visas and human mobility, while the stewardship of migratory controls is under the Ministry of the Interior of Ecuador.

The Regulation of the Human Mobility Act is made up of 3 books.
Book No. 1 People in Human Mobility
Book No. 2 Travel documents
Book No. 3 Migratory controls

In total this codification of the law is composed of 146 articles, 5 general provisions and 9 transitory provisions, which all together will regulate the application of the Human Mobility Act (Ley Orgánica de Movilidad Humana (LOMH)), published on Official register on February 6th, 2017.

Among the most important provisions of the Human Mobility Act we find in this regulation the following:

TYPES OF MIGRATORY CATEGORIES AND CONDITIONS

In Article 18 of the Human Mobility Act (RLOMH, for its initials in Spanish) it is established that there are migratory conditions and categories.

There are only two general migratory statuses in Ecuador, and under these two general statuses there are additional subcategories as listed in this link
