How to send money from Colombia to US

Pick a company

Start with the cheapest option, which is Revolut. It will get you the most USD on a COP 30,000,000 transfer.

Revolut was the cheapest on 7 of the 28 days it quoted COL$30,000,000 transfers to the US.

This heavily depends on how much you send, so I suggest to get the best COP/USD rate.

Fund your transfer

You have 1 ways to pay, including bank transfer.

Depending on the company, you may be able to pay with PSE or Bre-B from your bank, the same way you pay for anything online.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need your cédula and a photo of it.

Make sure to only use a regulated service, and never use informal methods just because they offer a better COP/USD rate.

Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send $30,000,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what $30,000,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.

The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.

When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more USD per COP than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of USD on every transfer from Colombia.

Right now, Revolut pays 8,988.14 USD on 30,000,000 COP, which is 168.84 USD less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 9,400.48 USD.

If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Cheapest over time

Picking the cheapest money transfer company

Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to the US.

We've tracked 88 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 3 amounts over the past month.

  1. RevolutAppeared in 84 comparisons

    Cheapest in 52% of them

  2. Global66Appeared in 88 comparisons

    Cheapest in 50% of them

Based on 88 comparisons across 3 amounts over the last 30 days.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.

To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).

Today Revolut is the cheapest and gets you the most USD, and it was also the cheapest in 52% of the 84 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

It's a good pick for both one-off and regular transfers to the US.

Global66 (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 50% of its comparisons, so if you send money to the US regularly, it's worth comparing it with Revolut before each transfer.

Ways to send money from Colombia to US

2 companies send money from Colombia to the United States.

For everyday transfers with Colombian apps

Money transfer apps

Most apps in Colombia are for domestic transfers, but you have a few options to send money to the United States.

Revolut is the cheapest option.

It charges COL$284,000 on a COP 30,000,000 transfer and delivers 8,988.14 USD in next day.

Over the past month, Revolut was the cheapest app on 25% of the days it appeared for COL$30,000,000 transfers.

Depending on the company, you can fund it with a PSE or Bre-B from your bank, which is usually instant.

Receiving and spending

Multi-currency accounts

Revolut lets you hold COP and other currencies (like USD) in one account, with account details for both.

This is useful if you’re getting paid in USD, or traveling to the United States often.

You can swap between them at any time.

Revolut will charge COP 284,000 and add 0.91% markup on a COP 30,000,000 conversion.

Over the past month, Revolut came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 25% of days.

For businesses working abroad

Global accounts

Payoneer and Veem are good options for Colombian businesses working in the US or in USD.

Ways to fund COP and receive USD in US

With Revolut, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending 30,000,000 COP gives your recipient 8,988.14 USD.

For receiving USD, the options are bank deposit.

You can pay in COP by bank transfer.

Paying from a Colombian bank account

Use bank transfer to fund the transfer to the US.

Make sure to check the account name and payment reference before approving it in your bank app.

The 4x1,000 tax can apply when money leaves a Colombian bank account, so check whether your account or transaction is exempt beforehand.

Consider this when sending COP to US

Sending money out of Colombia is less straightforward than receiving it. Compare the small number of outbound options, then account for the 4x1000 and any documents needed for the payment.

Compare COP/USD transfer options

For a COP 30,000,000 transfer to the United States, these are the best options:

Cheapest way to send money to the United States

The cheapest option is Revolut, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 8,988.14 USD, which is 0.19% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to the United States

The fastest option is Global66. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit in the United States. Your recipient gets 8,970.72 USD, with the money available in minutes - 24 hours.

0.4% transaction tax

The bank debit used to fund a transfer can also attract Colombia's “4x1000”, a 0.4% financial transaction tax.

Exemptions depend on the account and the total movements covered by the exemption, so check the debit on your own account before comparing the final cost.

Required documents

Most personal and family payments can be handled as free-market transactions.

Payments tied to imports, foreign investment, external debt and other operations that must pass through the foreign-exchange market need to be channelled through an Intermediario del Mercado Cambiario or a registered compensation account.

In practice, the bank or transfer company will ask for your ID, the payment purpose and proof of where the money came from when needed.

For tuition, property or an investment, have the invoice or agreement ready before starting.

The Banco de la República explains which transactions must be channelled through the formal foreign-exchange market.

PSE and Bre-B only fund the Colombian side

PSE and Bre-B only work inside Colombia.

Some remittance companies will let you use them as a funding method, but you can’t use either as a direct way to send money to the United States.
