Customers may elect to offer the below global life insurance benefits to employees and can choose between the basic and comprehensive plans.
Remote has partnered with Allianz as our benefits provider for global life insurance coverage.
It is essential to be aware that in certain countries:
- Insurance Premium Taxes may be applicable. This means you may pay taxes on the monthly premiums you pay towards the life insurance coverage for your employees.
- Life insurance benefits may be categorized as 'Benefits in Kind' (BIK). This categorization means that the monthly premiums, which the company pays for the life insurance coverage, might be counted as part of the employee's taxable income according to the local tax laws.
The rates listed here are for January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024 policy year. Pricing and benefits are subject to change in response to business and market changes and we will update you when those changes take place.

Remote supports our clients by offering competitive benefits packages that will help you attract and retain the best talent across the globe! Our benefits specialists have done the research on norms and requirements in each local market and have crafted packages that will allow your employees to thrive, no matter what country they live in.
We do not require customers to offer benefits in Colombia due to its strong public system and local laws that protect us (and you!) against claims of discriminatory hiring practices. However, we do recommend that employers in Colombia offer benefits to their employees, which allows them to access a wider range of options for providers and specialists as well as significantly shorter wait times. We do not add a markup on any benefits premiums or administration costs.
If you would like more insight into fair equity and benefits best practices, you can download our Global Benefits Guide here!
- Healthcare in Colombia: Colombia’s healthcare system is ranked 22nd globally by the World Health Organization and has a reputation for offering high-quality care. The country has a public health system that covers the majority of the population and is funded by contributions from employers and workers, in addition to a large amount of government spending. With such a well-funded program, healthcare costs are generally affordable. However, the quality of care and coverage available in major cities like Bogota and Medellin doesn’t extend to all parts of the country. For these reasons, private health insurance is important so patients can go to private facilities with more modern treatment options and more comfortable care when necessary.
- You will see benefits options for Colombia when onboarding your employee. From there, the employee will be enrolled and contacted with more information about their plan. Remote takes care of all the administration work so you can focus on scaling your global team!
