Spanish Residency & Planning for Tax in Spain
We first published this article in February last year. At that time Brexit had finally just ‘been done’, and the transition period begun. Through 2019 and 2020 unprecedented numbers of British nationals formally registered as resident in Spain to secure their residency rights under the Withdrawal Agreement. The numbers of residency applications spiked in the last months of 2020. Immigration reported receiving many thousands of last minute applications in December alone.
This year we’ve been receiving a lot of queries this year relating to Spanish residency and tax in Spain. For many it seems, the main priority was getting residency with the consideration of tax, put to one side on in some cases completely overlooked.
So we’ve refreshed and republished this article, and it will hopefully provide answers to most general questions that you may have about tax in Spain, if you’ve recently taken up residency in Spain.
