:''See Government of Colombia for a broader perspective of Colombian government.'' Taxation in Colombia is determined by the Congress of Colombia, the Department of Colombia Assemblies and the Municipalities of Colombia councils, which determine what kind of taxes can be levied and which rates can be applied. The country inherited a harsh and diffused taxation policy from the Spanish Empire characterized by a heavy reliance on customs duties, due to the relatively low capacity for local production of goods. Both the national and local governments' budgets run significant deficits. ==National taxes== National taxes are administered by the National Taxes and Customs Direction (DIAN).〔(DIAN National Tax and Customs Direction )〕 Some of these taxes include: ;IVA: The value-added tax (IVA) is the main indirect tax. This tax is 16 percent of the price of merchandise, goods and services with some exceptions: public transportation, water supply and sanitation and the transportation of natural gas and hydrocarbons. The DIAN recognizes two separate categories (''regimenes'') of IVA: common and simplified. The first refers to businesses with estimated patrimony over 68 million Colombian pesos (about 34,000 USD), and the second refers to those with patrimony less than that. Although both are obligated to pay the same percentage, the simplified taxpayers are not obligated to conduct separate bookkeeping for the IVA or to generate invoices. ;Stamp tax: The stamp tax ((スペイン語:impuesto de timbre)) is a tax on the expedition of an official document (or on the validity of private documents), such as a contract or contractual modification. ;Financial transactions tax: A 0.4% tax rate is imposed on all all financial transactions, including withdraw money from ATM, promissory notes, wire transfers, internet banking, bank drafts and bank checks, money on term deposit, overdrafts, installment loans, securities underwriting commitments and other forms of off-balance sheet exposures, safekeeping of documents and other items in safe deposit boxes, currency exchange or unit trusts. ;Patrimony tax: This tax requires the annual payment of 0.3% of the total patrimony of people with patrimony estimated over 3 billion pesos (about 1.5 million USD). ;Income tax: *''Corporations:'' Income tax ((スペイン語:Impuesto a la renta y complementarios)) must be paid by all local and foreign corporations operating in Colombia, who are subject to a corporate tax of 33%.〔(Estatuto Tributario colombiano. Art. 240 ), Estatuto Tributario Nacional〕 *''Individuals:'' Colombian citizens and foreign nationals who have lived continuously in Colombia for a total of five years are thereafter subject to individual Income tax based on a system of graduated marginal tax rates. The table below shows the tax rate in units of UVT (''Unidad de Valor Tributario''), in which 1 UVT = $29,753 COP for 2016.〔 "DIAN - Resolución 115, 6 November 2015: (). 〕 :: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taxation in Colombia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
