Foreign Asset Reporting

You must submit FBAR (Form 114) for Spanish bank accounts and Form 8938 if foreign assets exceed $200,000.

Residency Rules

Presence in Spain for over 6 months or having major economic interests can make you a Spanish tax resident.

Capital Gains

Spanish capital gains are taxed at progressive rates up to 28% in 2026 depending on the gain amount.

Important Deadlines

Spanish tax returns must be filed with the Agencia Tributaria between May 1st and June 30th.
