Does not include ICA withholding: calculate it with the ICA withholding calculator by municipality.

Short answer: from July 1, 2026, income tax withholding applies to purchases from 10 UVT ($ 523.740) at a 2.5% rate for filers, and to services from 2 UVT ($ 104.748) at a 4% rate for filers (Decree 572 of 2025). Fees have no minimum base: 11% for legal entities and 10% for individuals.

Between May 8 and June 30, 2026, Decree 572 was suspended and the previous bases applied (27 UVT for purchases and 4 UVT for services). If you settle a payment from those dates, choose that regime. 2026 UVT: $ 52.374.

When to use this tool

  • When paying a supplier's invoice and deducting the correct withholding.
  • To check whether a payment exceeds the 10 or 2 UVT minimum base.
  • When a supplier is a non-filer and the rate changes.
  • To settle payments made between May and June 2026 with the previous bases.
