Non Resident Taxes in Spain - IRNR
How does a Non-Resident in Spain pay taxes?
Non resident taxes in Spain are paid by filing the non-resident income tax return (IRNR), which is a direct tax charged on the income obtained by natural and legal persons who are not residents of Spanish territory. This filing is made to the Spanish Tax Agency using Form 210.
The tax rate for IRNR is 24% for residents in the European Union and 24.75% for residents outside the European Union.
The income that is subject to taxation even if you are a non-resident in Spain is:
- Employment income: Any income derived from work activities carried out in Spain, whether self-employed or as an employee, is subject to tax.
- Income from capital: Interest, dividends and capital gains generated in Spain may be subject to tax in Spain for non residents.
- Pensions: Pensions paid by Spanish institutions to non-residents may also be subject to tax.
- Additional income: Any other type of income obtained in Spain, such as prizes or gifts, may also be subject to taxation. See Inheritance and Gift Tax.
How do I know if I am a tax resident in Spain?
The tax residency refers to the nation in which you predominantly reside, file tax returns and comply with your tax obligations. If you meet one of these requirements, you are considered a tax resident in the country:
- If you have stayed more than 183 days in Spain within the same calendar year.
- If your main professional activities are carried out in Spain (employed as an employee or self-employed as a freelancer).
- If your main interests, such as your spouse or dependent children, reside in Spain.
What if I have real estate investments?
For those non-residents who own a home or real estate in Spain there are certain tax obligations to consider depending on each case:
Investment Properties Leased to Others:
A tax return must be filed in Spain. The tax is calculated on the gross income obtained from the rental of the property. The tax rate is 24%.
In addition, the owner must designate a tax representative in Spain to comply with tax obligations.
Properties Used as Second Homes and Occasionally Leased:
A tax return must also be filed in Spain. In this case, the tax is calculated on the gross income obtained from the rental of the property minus deductible expenses. The tax rate is 19%.
Deductible expenses include property maintenance, repair and improvement costs, as well as mortgage interest and local taxes.
In addition, the owner must designate a tax representative in Spain to comply with tax obligations.

Info
If you change your residence during the tax year in Spain, you must notify the Tax Agency. An individual will be resident or non-resident during the whole calendar year since the change of residence does not imply the interruption of the tax period.
If you change your address or place of work, requesting a change of tax domicile is simple, and mandatory. You can read how to change your address at the AEAT here.
Taxpayers who have changed their tax domicile must notify the Tax Agency using Form 030.
Yes, you need a Foreigner’s Identity Number (NIE) if you are a foreigner who is related to Spain for economic, professional or social interests.
Here we explain the whole process to follow to apply for the NIE. Please note that you must provide the Form EX15, your passport or identity card, and a communication of the economic, professional or social reason that justify the request.
To avoid double taxation, Spain has double taxation tax agreements with many countries. Under these agreements, the amount you pay in the country where you work is deducted from the amount you owe in your country of residence.
You can ask directly to our tax specialist all the implications for your specific case that the application of the double taxation avoidance benefit would have.
The tax implications of having a foreign bank account may vary depending on the laws of your country of residence. In some cases, you may be required to declare your foreign bank accounts to the tax authorities in your country of residence.
It is important to consult with a tax advisor or the relevant tax authorities for accurate and up-to-date information.
