Before talking about doing business in Colombia, let us give you some background information about the country first. Colombia is not only famous for its well-known coffee, beautiful beaches, and memorable food. It is considered “the entrance door to South America” since it is the meeting point between Central and South America. Its megadiversity sets it among some of the few and extraordinary countries in the world which offer beaches, plains, deserts, jungles, and snow-capped volcanoes to national and international visitors all in one place.

It is the only South American country that has a coast in the Pacific Ocean as well as in the Caribbean Sea.

Colombia, however, has not always been such a have-it-all destination. Some years ago, it had a reputation for being dangerous due to political issues and drug trafficking problems. However, this has changed with time and the country is mainly known for its beauty and diversity, and its charming and gentle people.Colombia’s capital city,Bogotá, is a cultural reference point for urban art, where graffiti has blossomed throughout the years. This city is one of the highest ones in the world with an altitude of 2640 meters above sea level.

Colombia’s economy is sustained by its famous emerald production as well as flowers, sugar, metals, textile, and coffee exports. The cost of living in this South American country is lower compared to the US and other European countries; thus, for US citizens renting a property or even investing in real estate is always an advantage. If, on the other hand, you are planning to settle down here after retirement, you will realize that the living cost, in general, is so much lower compared to the US. Hence, retirees will not face the predicament of cutting back on some particular expenses.
