How to Pay Spanish Property Taxes Online (2026 Guide for Non-Residents)

Paying Spanish property taxes online as a non-resident can be confusing—especially with different taxes, platforms, and deadlines involved. Whether you own a holiday home or an investment property, understanding how to pay your taxes correctly in 2026 is essential to avoid penalties.

This guide explains how to pay IBI and Modelo 210 online, where to do it, and how to stay compliant as a non-resident property owner in Spain.

What Property Taxes Do Non-Residents Pay in Spain?

If you own property in Spain but live abroad, you typically have two main tax obligations:

IBI (Local Property Tax)

IBI (Impuesto sobre Bienes Inmuebles) is a municipal tax paid annually to your local town hall.

• Based on cadastral value

• Paid by all property owners (resident and non-resident)

• Usually due between August and November (varies by municipality)

Non-Resident Tax (Modelo 210 – IRNR)

Even if your property is not rented out, you must declare imputed income.

• 19% for EU/EEA residents

• 24% for non-EU residents

• Deadline: 31 December of the following year (e.g. 2025 tax → due 31 Dec 2026)

If rented, income is declared annually (new simplified system introduced recently).

Where Do You Pay IBI in Spain?

IBI is paid through local tax collection agencies—not the national tax office.

SUMA (Alicante Province)

In Alicante, IBI is commonly managed by SUMA Gestión Tributaria. Payments can be made online via card or bank.

Patronato de Recaudación (Málaga)

In Málaga province, payments are handled through the provincial tax office (Patronato).

Other Municipal Platforms

Other cities use their own systems:

• Barcelona – municipal tax portal

• Valencia – regional tax platform

Always check your local authority to ensure you’re using the correct payment system.
