About this statute

This provision is the preamble to Law 2121 of 2021, which creates Colombia’s remote work regime and sets rules to promote and regulate it.

La ley aplica a personas naturales domiciliadas en el territorio nacional, a entidades públicas y privadas nacionales, y a empresas extranjeras que contraten trabajadores en Colombia.

This article defines key terms used in the law on remote work, including remote work, remote contract execution, remote worker, new technologies, electronic signature, and OTP.
