Through this paper is analyzed the impact of the application of a new method for collection of the alcabalas in Sogamoso between 1805 and 1818, in the context of political and administrative reforms undertaken by the Bourbons in the New Kingdom of Granada from half of the eighteenth century. It addresses different levels of tension between officials, social groups and emerging local elites, to show that the late implementation of the Bourbon reforms in Sogamoso, were received locally with the same discontent that caused throughout the Americas.

Keywords : alcabalas; Bourbon reforms; taxes; Sogamoso.
