Buy from Darty and ship to Colombia
France's electronics specialist, delivering in mainland France. Get a free French address, order as a local customer would, combine several orders into one shipment, and we forward it to Colombia.
Why Colombians cannot order from Darty directly
Darty delivers in mainland France
Darty does not ship abroad; its own communication points international customers to a French delivery address and a reshipping service. A receiving address in France is what puts you inside its delivery area.
230 V / 50 Hz decides half the catalogue
Cameras, computing and audio travel anywhere. Kettles, dryers and small kitchen appliances are built for French mains and only suit a 220 V destination like Chile.
French keyboards are AZERTY
It is the classic surprise on a laptop bought in France. If you want a different layout, choose it deliberately rather than discovering it after the parcel has flown.

Buying electronics at Darty with a French address
Darty is where France buys electronics and appliances, and it is a specialist rather than a general store: photo and audio, computing, phones, small kitchen appliances, and a service reputation built over decades. Its delivery is French. Darty does not ship abroad, and its own communication points international customers towards a French delivery address and a reshipping service — which is the route we provide.
The electrical question decides most of what is worth doing here, so let us put it first rather than last. France runs at 230 V and 50 Hz with type E sockets. Anything that is really a power supply — cameras, lenses, laptops, phones, tablets, headphones, most computing gear — is normally rated 100–240 V and travels anywhere with a plug adapter.
Anything with a heating element or a motor is built for French mains: kettles, hair dryers, blenders, vacuum cleaners, small kitchen appliances. Those work in Chile, whose grid at 220 V and 50 Hz is close enough, and do not work in Mexico at 127 V or Colombia at 110 V.
The second thing to weigh is the guarantee. The EU two-year legal guarantee applies to your French purchase and is exercised against the French seller, which means a claim involves sending the item back to France. That is strong protection and it is not a local service network — worth understanding before an expensive camera, not after.
So the good Darty basket from Latin America is photo and audio gear, computing, and accessories: dense, valuable, universally powered, and often priced well below the local importer.
For Colombia, the grid at 110 V rules out French appliances — but the tax side is friendlier than most: the DIAN states these shipments do not pay VAT when the goods originate in a country with a free-trade agreement and have no commercial purpose, and the EU–Colombia agreement dates from 2013.
| Category | Travels well? |
|---|---|
| Cameras, lenses, audio, headphones | Yes — high value per kilo, universal power supplies |
| Laptops, tablets, phones, computing | Yes — normally rated 100–240 V |
| Kettles, hair dryers, blenders, vacuums | Only to Chile — built for 230 V / 50 Hz |
| Large appliances | No — heavy, and wired for French mains |
| Anything with a French keyboard (AZERTY) | Check first — the layout is not what you may expect |

What the DIAN actually charges on a parcel to Colombia (2026)
Two numbers decide what a parcel pays in Colombia, and most guides mix them up. The DIAN's own page for tráfico postal y envíos urgentes puts the tributos aduaneros at a 10% customs duty on the FOB value — freight and insurance included — plus 19% IVA. Everything after that is exemptions on top.
On duty, the DIAN states that a shipment whose FOB value is US$200 or less does not pay the customs duty. On IVA there are two separate reliefs, and the first is the one that matters for a European purchase: the DIAN states that these shipments do not pay IVA when they come from countries with a free-trade agreement with Colombia and have no commercial purpose.
Colombia's agreement with the European Union has been in force since 2013 and its agreement with the United States since 2012; it has no such agreement with China or Turkey. Note that what counts is where the goods originate, not where you happened to buy them.
The second relief is temporary: Decreto Legislativo 1474 of 19 December 2025 excludes IVA on shipments worth no more than US$50, and the DIAN has confirmed that this one runs only from 1 January to 31 December 2026. That is what replaced the US$200 IVA figure people still repeat.
What none of this settles is your particular parcel. Whether a shipment counts as non-commercial, and whether its origin is evidenced to the satisfaction of the officer clearing it, is decided at clearance and not before. Read the rules above as the framework, check them against the DIAN page linked below before a large purchase, and be sceptical of anyone who guarantees you an exact final figure.
| Item | What the DIAN states (2026) |
|---|---|
| Customs duty, general rule | 10% of the FOB value, freight and insurance included |
| IVA, general rule | 19% |
| FOB of US$200 or less | Does not pay customs duty |
| Goods originating in an FTA country, no commercial purpose | Do not pay IVA — the EU and the USA have agreements; China and Turkey do not |
| Up to US$50 during 2026 | IVA excluded — Decreto Legislativo 1474/2025, art. 3 |
| The old US$200 IVA figure | Replaced by the US$50 exclusion, and only for 2026 |
Last updated: September 2026. Informational only — not customs or tax advice. The US$50 IVA exclusion is written for the 2026 calendar year, and the relief for shipments from FTA countries depends on the shipment having no commercial purpose and on origin being evidenced at clearance.

Thousands of global shoppers trust Resendify
From fashion to car parts, from luxury to electronics — global shoppers use Resendify to buy from Europe without limits.
“Finally a service that actually works for buying from Spanish stores. I ordered from Zara España, MANGO and El Corte Inglés in the same week — everything arrived consolidated in one box. Shipping to LA was way cheaper than I expected.”
“I bought a MediaMarkt laptop that wasn't available in Canada at that price. The process was seamless — got my European address, placed the order, and Resendify handled everything from there. Will definitely use again.”
“Been sourcing European car parts for years. Resendify is the best forwarding service I've used for Europe-to-India shipments. The consolidation feature saved me hundreds on a single order.”
“Bought from a French boutique that doesn't ship to Australia. Got my Resendify address in minutes, placed the order, and it was on my doorstep in Sydney two weeks later. Exactly as advertised.”
“I source from 4–5 European suppliers every month. Resendify consolidates everything before it hits the US, which cuts my per-unit shipping cost significantly. The quote tool is accurate and the team is responsive.”
“Found a Zalando deal that was EU-only. Used Resendify, got the item shipped to Dubai without any issues. The customs documentation was all handled — that's the part I usually dread.”
Buying from Darty and shipping to Colombia
No. Darty delivers in mainland France and does not ship abroad, so it does not deliver to Colombia. You can still buy there with a receiving address in the store's own country: we take delivery, hold your parcels while you finish shopping, and forward them to you.
No. Darty delivers in mainland France, and its own communication points international customers towards a French delivery address and a reshipping service. A receiving address in France is what gives you access.
Photo and audio gear, computing, phones and accessories: dense, valuable and normally rated 100–240 V so they work anywhere. Small appliances with heating elements or motors are built for 230 V and 50 Hz.
The EU two-year legal guarantee applies to your French purchase and is exercised against the French seller, so a claim means returning the item to France. It is real protection, but it is not a local service network — worth weighing on expensive items.
Usually yes — AZERTY. If you want QWERTY, filter for it deliberately. It is the single most common regret on a laptop bought in France and it is entirely avoidable.
US$200 is still the duty threshold: the DIAN states that a shipment with an FOB value of US$200 or less does not pay the 10% customs duty. What moved is the IVA side — Decreto Legislativo 1474 of December 2025 set the IVA exclusion at US$50, and the DIAN has confirmed it applies only during the 2026 calendar year.
It depends on the values. Consolidating is almost always cheaper on freight, but it raises the FOB value of a single shipment, which is exactly what the US$200 duty threshold looks at. Ask us before you buy and we will price both options so you can compare them.
The DIAN's IVA relief for shipments from FTA countries is written for shipments with no commercial purpose. If you are importing to resell, that is a formal import with its own requirements — talk to us and to a customs agent before ordering, not after the goods are in the air.
