jh816 You will need to tell us if you plan on working/investing in Colombia or not, if not there is no direct tax obligations here if you generate no income here.

Income Tax If I´m not wrong it´s based on your yearly income, there are "income brackets".

work but probably not invest I've got quite a bit in American equities to support a nice living while in Colombia, but I plan on working (but not too hard) while I'm down there. I've got two undergrad degrees and an M.B.A. but no teaching experience (I figured a job teaching english would probably be easiest to find). If I can find work teaching "under the table" then taxes won't be a problem. Just kind of shocked when I saw the high tax rate on foreigner income.
