- Caquetá Territory, capital in Mocoa
- San Martín Territory, capital in San Martín, between Meta River y Guaviare River.
- Mosquito Coast: While through the Royal Decree of 20 November 1803 it became part of New Granada, it never had an effective control over it as being under British rule. Legally dependent on the Cartagena Province. Still, in 1841 the government arrested and expelled an expedition of British settlers to Nueva Segovia (River Bluefields) that had arrived in 1841 on Little Catherine, having been granted title to land by the King of the Muskitos.
- San Andrés and Providencia, also became part of New Granada by the same royal decree that transferred the Mosquito Coast of the Captaincy General of Guatemala to the Viceroyalty of New Granada. Depended on the Cartagena Province.
