About this statute

Preamble to Law 1819 of 2016, which states that the law adopts a structural tax reform and strengthens measures against tax evasion and avoidance. This provision restructures personal income tax rules for resident individuals and sets separate rules for different income categories. Dividends and participations received by certain national-company recipients are not treated as income or occasional gain, if the profits were declared in the company’s name and, for pre-1986 profits, were recorded as retained earnings with the required 1985 return filed by 30 July 1986. For article 49, items 3, 4, 5, and 7 must be read together with Title V of Book One of the statute. For certain Ministry of Foreign Affairs staff, special and cost-of-living allowances are not counted when calculating the percentage limit in article 336.
