Possibly,
It depends on a number of factors. In my particular case I will avoid becoming a tax resident for some time for that various.

"There is no inheritance tax, but the inheritance will be considered as a capital gain so it will be taxed at a rate of 10 per cent. "
https://content.step.org/jr-colombia
However, if you receive the inheritance outside of Colombia in a country where it is not taxable (for example Canada), the inheritance will never be mentioned in your Canadian income tax return. Unless you planned to bring it into Colombia, how would Colombia ever learn of it?

If you told DIAN about it, I am sure they would be happy to take as much of it that you were prepared to offer them..

I have a tendency to lay low, don't bring attention to myself, don't open any financial accounts in Colombia and least of all tell the government I just inherited a lot of money.
