Pico y placa and dollar today: 2 free tools for your daily life in Colombia

Two questions are repeated every morning in Colombia: Is today my pico y placa day? y What is the dollar rate today?. That is why we launched two free tools on Colombia Move that answer them in seconds, without registration.

Pico y placa in 5 cities

You can now check the pico y placa for private vehicles in Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Cartagena, and Barranquilla, with data verified from the official sources of each city.

• Immediate answer: upon opening the page, you see right away which license plates cannot circulate today and during what hours.
• Change city with one tap and also check the following day.
• Confirm your plate with your last digit to know if your car can be driven right now.

Each city has its own rule: Bogotá operates by even or odd days, while Medellín, Cali and Cartagena rotate by day of the week (Cartagena has two windows, in the morning and afternoon). In Barranquilla, there is no pico y placa for private vehicles, and we state that clearly.

Dollar today in Colombia (TRM)

You can also see the dollar rate today with the official updated TRM, a dollar-to-peso converter, and a chart showing the rate's evolution.

• Daily TRM and how much it rose or fell compared to the previous value.
• USD to COP converter instantaneous, ideal for remittances, freelancers, or budgeting a move.
• Historical chart for 1 month, 3 months, and 1 year to see the trend.

The TRM is the official dollar value published by the Financial Superintendency every business day. Remember that exchange houses apply a margin, so the actual buying or selling value varies slightly from the TRM.

Why these tools?

Colombia Move is more than a marketplace: we want to be useful in your daily life. If pico y placa complicates things for you, check out cars and motorcycles on the marketplace; and if you handle dollars, you will now know the TRM before any deal. Explore all tools y post for free what you want to sell, lease, or offer.
