Full Details
Initial classification only — pending editorial verification. Fresh Fruit sent to Colombia typically requires an accurate customs declaration on the CN22 / CN23 label, may attract duty + VAT above the personal-import threshold, and in some cases needs a permit (medication / food / cultural property). Mailers should consult Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales (DIAN) for the current parcel rule and threshold values.
Declare the contents accurately on the CN22 / CN23 label. Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales (DIAN) computes duty + VAT above the destination's de-minimis threshold. Keep purchase receipts available in case the consignee receives a clearance notice.
Servientrega and 4-72 (Servicios Postales Nacionales) handle postal inbound clearance under DIAN supervision at Bogotá, Medellín, Cartagena and Barranquilla. DIAN's courier regime (Tráfico Postal y Envíos Urgentes) covers consignments up to USD 2,000 per shipment with simplified duty (10% flat for personal use, plus 19% IVA); above USD 2,000, formal entry through SYGA (DIAN's customs system) applies. Strictly prohibited postal items: counterfeit branded goods, currency / monetary instruments without declaration, narcotic substances, firearms / ammunition, hazardous materials, anti-state publications. Cash declarations on arriving parcels above USD 10,000-equivalent must be filed via the cross-border movement form.
