What it is

A credit balance is cash. Asking for it is a measurable risk.

Many business owners arrive with a VAT or income tax credit balance and a concrete need: recover liquidity. Decree 572 of 2025 raised withholding and self-withholding rates and bases. That hit many companies, left more balances trapped at DIAN, and pushed demand for refunds. Payment does not come from a form alone.

Before filing, review the file and the risks of the request: objections, information requirements, inadmissibility, denial, and possible litigation if the case hardens. There, tax law is law. Ligal mixes accounting and legal judgment: Jeysson Pulido leads refunds; Juan Santiago Rodríguez Prieto, ex-DIAN, sets the firm's legal line when a lawyer is required.

What we do

From a paper balance to cash, eyes open.

We measure the recoverable balance, the risks of filing, and build the file with accounting and legal judgment. We do not file by inertia.

01

Balance and cash map

How much there is, which period, which ground applies, and what is truly payable. The owner needs liquidity; we need clean numbers.

02

Risks before filing

Objections, information requests, inadmissibility, denial, and possible litigation. Asking badly can cost more than waiting. That analysis is the craft.

03

Legal and accounting file

Supports, reconciliations, and the story of the balance. LIGAL Auditores (Law 43 of 1990) builds the accounting side; legal judgment enters when tax law is law.

04

Reply before DIAN

If objections or requests arrive, we answer with proof and deadlines. If there is a denial, we measure remedies and, only if it makes sense, court.

Clear limits

What we do not do with a refund.

We do not file blind

A weak request opens objections, inadmissibility, or denial. Sometimes the best move is to wait, offset, or complete proof.

We do not promise payment

No serious professional guarantees DIAN will pay. We offer a solid file, deadlines, and judgment. Outcome depends on the case.

We do not blur roles

The accountant builds and sustains the balance. The lawyer steps in for acts, merits denials, or litigation. At Ligal each craft has its place.

The difference

An accountant who knows cash. A firm with ex-DIAN judgment.

The refunds practice is led by Jeysson Pulido: an accountant with more than 12 years of experience and more than 100 successful DIAN refunds. He understands the client needs liquidity and that the request carries risk. Juan Santiago Rodríguez Prieto, ex-DIAN tax attorney, directs the firm and the legal line when the case requires it.

Already have an accountant? They stay. We add refund judgment and, if needed, legal representation. We do not replace them by force.

FAQ

DIAN refunds, without fine print

They are the process to cash or offset a liquidated credit balance before DIAN. For the owner it is usually trapped cash. It is not only a form: the file and the risks of the request matter.

Decree 572 of 2025 raised withholding and self-withholding rates and bases. Many businesses saw more money withheld, more trapped credit balances, and more interest in requesting a refund.

A weak request opens objections, information requirements, inadmissibility, or denial. That delays payment, burns time, and in the worst case pushes toward litigation. Risk comes first.

They can build supports and file. If there is a merits objection, denial, or legal dispute, tax law is law: a lawyer is wiser. At Ligal both crafts work together.

It depends on profile, ground, and whether requests appear. A clean file moves faster; an incomplete one stalls or is denied. The diagnostic estimates with your case, not with generic promises.

You describe the case with tax, period, and filing status. Within 48 business hours you receive the balance and risk map, plus a proposal. It is free and binds you to nothing.
