FAQ

General
Info

The deadline for filing annual accounts in Spain depends on the end of the financial year.

Generally, companies have three months from the end of the financial year to prepare their annual accounts. After the approval of the accounts by the shareholders or partners, they must be deposited in the Mercantile Registry within one month.

Failure to file annual accounts within the specified deadline can result in penalties and legal consequences.

The penalties vary depending on the delay, the size of the company, and other factors.

In addition to monetary fines, there can be restrictions on company operations, suspension of certain rights, and even dissolution in extreme cases.

The calculation of Corporate Income Tax in Spain involves determining the taxable income by subtracting deductible expenses and applying the relevant tax rates.

Companies must consider income from various sources, such as business activities, investments, and capital gains.

Tax deductions, allowances, and incentives available under Spanish tax laws may also impact the final tax liability.

They have various responsibilities, including ensuring the accurate and timely preparation of annual accounts, filing corporate income tax returns, and depositing the approved annual accounts in the Mercantile Registry.

Reducing corporation tax liabilities in Spain can be achieved through various legal strategies.

Some common methods include taking advantage of applicable deductions, allowances, and incentives provided by the tax legislation.
