It depends. In most cases, it is a chemical change as the different colored species have different chemical structures.
However, it is possible to change color by very finely dividing particles of matter and this is a physical change.
Color isn't a "change" of any kind, it's a property. A change in colors is usually due to a chemical change, but there are a few special cases where it's a physical change (such as in a mood ring).
Chemical change
Physical (intensive) property.
The physical properties of a crayon include the size, color, it is waxy, crumbly, and slippery. The chemical properties are flammability.
It is a physical change.
Lightning is a physical change not a chemical change. Other things that are physical changes are breaking a bottle and melting ice.
Chemical change!
- Color is a physical property and the change of color also.- Color change may be a sign of a chemical reaction.
Color is a physical change always.

The change is leaf color is a chemical change.
The color purple is a physical property, but if it appears during a chemical reaction, it is representative of a chemical change.
Color is a physical property, not a change.
A color change is only a chemical change if the change is permanent, if the color change is not permanent, then it is likely a physical change. Let's look at Iodine for example (that's pronounced Eye-oh-deen), it is a solid metal that is grayish in color in its solid state, however in its gas state it's a purple or violet color. Once it reverts to its solid state, it turns gray again. This is a PHYSICAL property of Iodine. If the color changed permanently to something else, it would be a chemical change.
