Most Colombian repair companies charge a call-out / diagnostic fee of $30.000–$70.000 COP, often credited toward the repair if you go ahead. Every figure is an Estimated or observed published fee — never a fake precise number. Reviewed July 2026.
What is the typical fee?
The national range is $30.000–$70.000 COP. The fee usually covers travel and diagnosis; many companies credit it against the repair if you proceed — always ask before booking. Colombia's standard 19% VAT (IVA) applies to appliance-repair services (Tax Statute, art. 468). However, small providers registered as "no responsables del IVA" (formerly the simplified regime) do not charge it, and many independent, informal technicians invoice without VAT — so treat 19% as a ceiling, not a guaranteed add-on.
