🏠 Why Non-Residents Need a Tax Lawyer in Spain
If you’re not a resident of Spain but own property, receive income, or inherit assets here, you’re still subject to Spanish tax laws. The problem? Most non-residents are unaware of:
-
Which taxes they owe (IRNR, IBI, wealth tax, etc.)
-
Reporting deadlines
-
Penalties for late or missed filings
A qualified non-resident tax lawyer in Spain ensures you meet all obligations, avoid unnecessary fines, and benefit from tax treaties.
👥 Who We Represent
We advise:
-
Foreigners with a holiday home or rental property in Spain
-
Inheritors of Spanish property or bank accounts
-
Non-resident investors with Spanish assets
-
Former residents who still own property
-
Digital nomads or part-year residents unsure of their status
⚖️ Tax Obligations for Non-Residents
If you’re not tax-resident in Spain (under 183 days/year), you may still owe:
| Tax Type | Applies If… |
|---|---|
| IRNR (Non-Resident Income Tax) | You rent out or own property in Spain |
| IBI (Local Property Tax) | You own real estate in Spain |
| Wealth Tax | Your net assets in Spain exceed legal thresholds |
| Capital Gains Tax | You sell Spanish property |
| Inheritance/Gift Tax | You inherit from or gift to someone in Spain |
We file these taxes on your behalf and ensure they’re minimized wherever legally possible.
📑 Double Tax Treaties & Avoiding Overlap
Spain has agreements with dozens of countries (e.g. UK, US, Canada, Germany, etc.) to avoid double taxation.
We help you:
-
Claim foreign tax credits
-
Structure your finances efficiently
-
Avoid paying tax twice on the same income
🧾 Selling Property? Watch for Capital Gains Tax
When you sell real estate in Spain as a non-resident:
-
You’ll owe capital gains tax
-
A 3% withholding is retained at the time of sale
-
You may need to prove acquisition costs to reduce the gain
We handle your tax calculations, submit all forms, and work with notaries or realtors as needed.
