Sumario: | This document studies the incidence that Venezuelan immigration has had in recent years with respect to the informality experienced in Colombia for the period 2015-2018. For this, a logistic model determined the degree of probability that a worker in Colombia has been informal. Micro data from the Large Integrated Household Survey (GEIH) of the National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE) helped in addition to data provided by Migración Colombia, disaggregated by the 23 main cities of the country. The results indicate that the income of Venezuelan immigrants affects informality levels in the country, where the probability that a worker in Colombia is informal increases by 0.49% for every 10,000 immigrants who have entered a certain city.
