Taxing Crypto in Colombia
summary
Colombia treats crypto as an intangible asset for tax purposes and is compiling ~25 prior rulings into one bilingual concept to clarify gaps. Capital gains are taxable: held >2 years taxed at 10% long‑term capital gains (proposed 15%), sold earlier taxed at progressive ordinary rates (19–39%). Exchanges generally avoid VAT but some NFT sales may incur it. Accounting follows IFRS, DeFi and stablecoin rules await financial authority regulation, and accepting crypto tax payments needs Congressional authorization.
