This article analyzes the regime of protection of competition in Colombian legislation, punctually in the case of Uber, a company that provides the public service of individual passenger transport, through a technological application. A qualitative, juridical and hermeneutical investigation was developed, where secondary sources of information were used to solve the case under discussion, with the objective of determining the regime of protection to the competition, the modality under which the company Uber develops the software and the national entities in charge of monitoring and control of the same, managing to conclude that according to the essential nature of the service provided, it is the State, through the Ministry of Transport and the Superintendence of Ports and Transport, the entity in charge of its monitoring and control and that Uber does not incur any unfair competition against the traditional taxi service, in light of current Colombian legislation.
