Starting August 3rd, there will be changes to obtaining the 50% discount on traffic tickets for early payment: there will be a new recognition system.

Starting August 3, drivers in Colombia seeking a 50% discount on traffic fines will be required to undergo a biometric identity verification process. This new requirement, mandated by the Superintendence of Transport, must be completed before the payment process for the fine can be finalized.

The measure introduces a mandatory authentication step for those wishing to access the early payment benefit. By implementing this biometric system, the regulatory authority aims to formalize the identification process for individuals settling traffic violations.
