Cost of an official translation in Colombia: 2027 update

A short summary of what changed and what stays the same in pricing, turnaround, and coverage, for anyone comparing options before requesting a quote.

This page is updated once a year to reflect current pricing, turnaround times, and coverage cities. The complete, always-current table lives on the pricing page; this page explains what changed from one year to the next and why.

What stays the same

  • Standard official translation from $55,000 COP per page
  • Interpreting from $100,000 COP per hour
  • Fixed quote in writing, delivered the same day
  • Standard turnaround of 2 to 3 business days for documents of 1 to 3 pages

What expanded this year

  • Domestic shipping coverage to Bogotá, Cali, Barranquilla and Bucaramanga, with the same signature-registration standard as in Medellín
  • "Ready-to-file" package (translation + notarial authentication + apostille + shipping) available for all five cities
  • Quotes in USD on request for international clients

Exact prices and turnaround times by document type and service are always available and current on the pricing page. This retrospective doesn't replace that table: it adds context on what changed.
