If you spend more than 183 days per calendar year in Spain you will be considered as tax Resident in Spain. This is nothing you can choose and it differs from Padron or a Residency permit “Residencia”. If you live more than half a year in Spain and need to declare taxes as Resident we will do your taxes for you. It does also not matter which visa you are using to stay in Spain, the tax laws are different from visa and residency permits.
If you spend less than half the year in Spain and normally pay taxes in another country you will be considered a Non-Resident.

Sure there are! Quite a few to be honest.

Beckham Law is a special tax law for foreigners who have income in Spain. Under special circumstances you might be able to apply it for your spanish income and tax it at a very low flat tax rate. The rule basically says that people who would need to pay income taxes for residents in Spain now is considered as a Non-Resident for tax purposes. There are several criteria that will be applied to be able to use the Beckham Law and it might not be beneficial if you also pay taxes abroad and utilize a double taxation agreement.

This might also be the case if you work in shipping, on a cruise ship or a private yacht.
Issue relating to airline pilots or people working on ships or yachts tend to get very complicated easily. Perhaps you have just moved from one country to work on a ship in Spain but the ship cruises most of its time outside of Spain?
Have you moved to a Spanish airport base and do most of your flying internationally? Have you or your colleagues applied the Beckham law?
These situations almost always need professional advise since your colleagues might have moved to Spain from different countries and the Beckham law might be applied with various consequences!

Another good question! Well, if you have previously declared taxes for residents in Spain and you have low income, you are not obliged to declare “La Renta” in Spain. There are several exceptions thought, for example if you have investment income or income from abroad. Please do contact us if you are unsure and we will help you out!
Rental Income is taxed in Spain in the same bracket as employment income but there are several deductions available making it quite affordable to pay taxes in Spain.
In general, you can deduct any direct costs related to the rental income and there are several general allowances to be made which are often connected to the property value or any purchases you might have made in relation to the property.
You can read more about taxes related to Rental Income on our page for that which is aimed at Non-Residents, but the rules are basically the same, you just have to declare it annually with your yearly income tax statement. We will of course provide you with all the help you need.

Yes, but you need to make sense of a rather difficult spanish tax system. Rules also change, tax forms can differ from year to year.
There might also be problems with bank payments or the property values might have been revised between years. The advice you might have found on internet might not be correct and the advice your lawyer or gestor gave you a few years ago might be out of date.
We quite often see cases where somebody has filed for themselves for years and we notice they have not done it correctly.
The good thing about our service is that you won’t have to worry about that and you have access to support if you have any questions.
We like the analogy that sometimes it’s comfortable to go to a restaurant even if you know how to cook. You won’t need to worry about finding a new recipe or doing the dishes.
But hey, if you love cooking, or doing taxes, you can always spend a few hours making a mess in the kitchen.

As a Resident
This depends on your country of origin and the double taxation agreement. If you are considered Resident you will need to pay taxes in Spain. If you also need to pay taxes in your country of origin, this will be governed in the double taxation treaty.
As a Non-Resident
Yes, you must declare in both countries, in Spain you declare your Spanish residence even if you are tax resident in other country normally. If you have rental income, you must declare these in both your home country and Spain and make deductions according to the respective countries’ tax system. You can then claim the Spanish tax back in some cases under double taxation agreements so that you do not have to double tax.
It is NOT recommended trying to avoid paying taxes for residents in Spain. There are heavy penalties and a good chance to be caught, this is especially true for those spending more than half the year in Spain and should declare as Residents. Breaking tax laws in Spain might incur penalties which could amount to more than 150 % of net assets withheld from the tax agency!
There are stories online and among friends about people who never bothered to declare and nothing has happened. However, this is erroneous and very risky since the Spanish tax authority has access to both Spanish property registers and European tax information through a joint tax register in the EU. It can thus be expensive and come at the same time as you simply become a tax saver and break the law.
Also, note that there are “discounts” on the fines if you choose to declare earlier years when you missed.
It is possible to declare taxes for residents in Spain jointly. This does affect your deductions and might be beneficial under some circumstances.
You can add both of your names in our form when you click the red button and we will calculate the most beneficial option for you.
If you leave Spain and during a calendar year do not spend more than 183 days in Spain you can file a form to deregister for taxes residents in Spain and stop paying taxes in Spain. If you have a considerable wealth you might have to pay “exit tax” but this is nothing a person with normal income and assets have to care about (think millions of euros).
You might have heard about double taxation treaties and how you are not supposed to pay tax twice on the same income?
Spain has signed double taxation agreements with several countries and this will help guide who needs to pay taxes and where as well as eliminate any double taxes paid.
You might think, “great, so I just need to pay taxes in Spain!” Well, unfortunately it is not that easy, rather you will often have to pay tax in both countries and the tax rate which is the highest will prevail.
