Has anybody else had a request for the submission of an income tax form by 31st December for non residents? I just had an email from my solicitor who managed my property purchase a couple of years ago saying that I need to submit forms for me and my wife by the 31st December. I have set up a standing order with the local authority for local taxes but I assume this is for national taxes. He wants to charge 30 euros per form. He was a decent guy and It sounds genuine but I would like to know if I am alone in this and therefore a bit iffy or are others in the same position. How much tax are we talking about?Any help would be much appreciated. I'm not in Spain so therefore I would rely on somebody doing this for me so the solicitor is the right approach.

Non-residents hav to complete an annual tax return and the fee being quoted is very reasonable

You will have to pay very little tax butoften the fine if you do not submit will b  ore than any tax owed so you would be advised to do the form which I believe is a 210

What should the cost of the tax be from the local tax office, as our solictor also asked the same question and will do the job for 60 euros.

Is it a standard cost for a 2 bed, not being rented out?

Your tax liability is calculated by reference to the cadastral value of your property.

The cadastral value ("valor catastral") is equivalent to the UK rateable value.  The total cadastral value ("valor catastral total") for the year in question is the figure we need.  This is made up of two components: the land value ("valor catastral suelo") and the property value ("valor catastral construccion").  It does not relate directly to the purchase price or market value of your property.

  The cadastral value will be shown on your council tax bill or receipt (also known as IBI/suma/rates) normally as "valor catastral/base imponible".

  If these documents are not to hand your local Town Hall will be able to help or your bank if you've set up a direct debit. 

Alternatively, if you have previously used a fiscal rep, they may have the information.  If the property is newly built, and a cadastral value has not yet been determined, your income tax liability is calculated based on a formula using half of the purchase price (escritura value) exc IVA.

HI f olks,

We went and paid our tax last March. If you are living in Spain for any length of time, go to the tax office in Murcia, fill out the forms whcih they will help  you with. You then take the forms to your bank and they will pay for you out of your account. Its not that difficult and will save you a lot of money over the years.
