Résidence fiscale en Colombia : le test des 183 jours
Seuil de 183 jours
Comment la règle des 183 jours fonctionne en Colombia
Colombia counts 183 days in any consecutive 365 day period.
Fenêtre glissante de 12 mois. Cela signifie que le décompte regarde en arrière à partir de n'importe quelle date donnée, pas seulement la fin de l'année civile. Une fenêtre glissante est plus difficile à suivre manuellement car le chiffre change chaque jour.
Si vous dépassez 183 jours, Colombia peut imposer vos revenus mondiaux en tant que résident fiscal. Les conséquences exactes dépendent de votre situation personnelle, des conventions fiscales applicables et du type de revenus concerné.
Comment le décompte fonctionne
Colombia treats you as tax resident once you have spent 183 days or more inside the country during a rolling 365 day window, counting continuous and aggregate days alike. The interesting bit is when residency actually starts: if the 183 day count is completed inside a single tax year, residency runs for that whole year, but if it straddles two years, the residency clock starts only in the second one.
Ce qui compte comme un jour
Any day with physical presence in Colombia counts, including arrival and departure days. The 365 day measuring window rolls forward continuously rather than resetting on a tax year boundary.
Au-delà du simple décompte
For Colombian nationals there is an extra route into residency, separate from days: keeping family, an economic activity, or at least half of your assets in Colombia. Foreigners are only judged by the 183 day count.
Régimes fiscaux spéciaux
Colombia does not run a general expat regime. Residents pay progressive income tax on their worldwide earnings, up to 39%, and can credit foreign taxes already paid.
Conventions fiscales
The Colombian treaty network is still growing. Existing agreements with Spain, Switzerland, Canada, Chile, and a handful of others all follow the OECD tiebreaker shape.
Questions fréquentes
When does Colombian tax residency begin?
It starts in the tax year you finish your 183 days inside the rolling 365 day window. If those 183 days cross from one year into the next, residency starts in the later year. From that point on, your worldwide income is on the Colombian tax base.
Do the days have to be consecutive?
No. The 183 days are aggregate, totalled across all your days of presence in the rolling 365 day window. They do not need to run back to back.
Are foreign capital gains taxed for Colombian residents?
Yes. Colombian residents pay tax on worldwide capital gains. Treaty relief or a unilateral foreign tax credit can soften the double tax exposure in some cases.
