Do I pay taxes in Colombia with a digital nomad visa?

AI Answer
Yes, you generally only pay taxes in Colombia on income sourced within the country if you have a Digital Nomad Visa. This means income from foreign clients or employers outside Colombia is typically not taxed in Colombia. For example, if you're a designer working remotely for a US company, Colombia won't tax that income. However, if you freelance for a Colombian company while living there, that income is taxable. Colombia's income tax rates range from 0% to 39%. Most digital nomads will fall into lower brackets if they do have Colombian-sourced income. To be considered a tax resident and potentially subject to worldwide income tax, you usually need to spend more than 183 days in Colombia within any 365-day period. The Digital Nomad Visa is designed to avoid this, specifically for those earning income from outside the country. Always keep your income streams clear. If you're earning solely from abroad, you have less to worry about. For specific guidance, consult a local tax professional in Colombia to ensure compliance.
