About the country
Colombia was one of the first countries in the region with an official digital nomad visa: the Visa V “Nómada Digital” has run since 2022. Climate and landscape shift from the Caribbean and Pacific coasts to the Andes, living costs are low, and Medellín, Bogotá and Cartagena keep growing as remote-work cities.
Worth knowing
- !Income is proven by 3 months of statements with no averaging - one-off payments and bonuses don't count
- !Staying over 183 days in a year triggers tax residency and tax on worldwide income (up to about 39%)
- !Safety varies by region - tourist areas are calm, but crime remains a problem in the country overall
- !Renewal practice after 2 years differs between consulates - there's no single position
- !The digital nomad visa strictly prohibits working for or providing services to Colombian companies and individuals
