Wealth tax

Wealth tax

In Spain, wealth tax is an annual tax that is calculated on the basis of the assets and debts that a natural person has.

For non-residents, both individuals and some legal entities, wealth tax is calculated on the basis of assets (generally real estate) and debts held in Spain. Each double taxation treaty establishes specific characteristics for the calculation of wealth tax.
