New Update! As of the 2024 tax year, if you pay tax on rental income in Spain as a non-resident, you can now file your rental income tax return annually. This marks a significant change from the previous requirement, where non-residents were obliged to file quarterly tax returns for rental income. However, if you do have rental income prior to 2024, you will need to still submit this as quarterly tax returns. In this article, we’ll cover the ins and outs of the new update and how it impacts property owners.
How will this impact property owners?
The new update for 2024 allows non-residents who pay tax on rental income in Spain to file their tax returns once a year instead of every three months. This means that property owners will no longer need to file their tax returns four times a year, but just once annually. This change will make things easier for property owners by reducing the amount of paperwork and time spent on taxes. Additionally, with only one filing deadline to meet, there’s less risk of missing deadlines and incurring penalties. Overall, this update simplifies the tax process, allowing property owners to focus more on managing their properties and less on administrative tasks.
