Colombia: Alert on Changes to Colombian Import Permit Enforcement

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   CO2025-0009
Anyone exporting food or feed products to Colombia should note that since March 2025, Colombian quarantine officials have stopped allowing updates to many details on import permits and are no longer allowing any changes after the products have left port. Previously, most agents permitted modifications to be made, to fields such as the export facility, after payment of a small fine. This change in enforcement measures has resulted in many detained and rejected shipments.
