Got a fine you didn't know about? Unpaid traffic violations in Colombia can block your vehicle registration, freeze ownership transfers, and damage your credit record. The fastest fix starts with one free search.
The SIMIT — Sistema Integrado de Multas de Infracciones de Transito — is Colombia's official national platform for checking and paying traffic fines. Whether you search by vehicle plate or by national ID, SIMIT returns accurate results in seconds.
Operated by the Federacion Colombiana de Municipios (FCM) under authorization from the Ministerio de Transporte, SIMIT is the only legally recognized national registry for traffic violations in Colombia. Every fine issued by traffic police or automated cameras across all 32 departments is uploaded here.
Use the SIMIT Por Placa search when you need to check violations tied to a specific vehicle. This is essential before buying or selling a used car, or before scheduling a Revision Tecnico-Mecanica (RTM).
The SIMIT Por Cedula search links every fine to your Cedula de Ciudadania. This is the most complete way to review your personal traffic record across all Colombian cities.
Pay online through PSE, Bancolombia, or Davivienda, or in person at Efecty and Baloto locations nationwide. Keep your payment receipt. Processing takes 2-5 business days to reflect in the system.
SIMIT covers fines. For vehicle ownership history, SOAT insurance status, and technical inspection records, use Runt — the Registro Unico Nacional de Transito. Together, SIMIT and RUNT give you a complete view of any vehicle or driver in Colombia.
If you are in Mexico and need to verify government educational aid status, the Estatus Beca Benito Juarez portal provides official updates on Beca Bienestar Benito Juarez scholarship eligibility and payments.
