Colombia’s imports saw a marked acceleration in April 2026, with year-over-year growth reaching 15.80%, according to data updated on 22 June 2026. This represents a significant pickup from March 2026, when import growth stood at 11.10% compared with the same month a year earlier.
The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, where the current reading reflects the change in April 2026 relative to April 2025, and the previous reading measures March 2026 against March 2025. The move from 11.10% to 15.80% suggests strengthening external demand or rising domestic needs for imported goods as the second quarter begins.
While the data do not break down imports by category, the acceleration in overall growth signals a more robust trade dynamic heading into mid-2026 and will likely draw attention from analysts tracking Colombia’s economic momentum and external sector resilience.
