Explained – Spanish Taxes for Digital Nomads

2nd February 2023

My Lawyer in Spain’s Alex Radford, Pablo Mallo Bárcena from MDG Advisors in Malaga and Melanie Radford of Legal Services in Spain talk about all things related to Spanish taxes for Digital Nomads.

As well as providing an overview of the situation, we answer specific questions with individual concerns.

Your Questions

1) my employer has allowed me to work in Spain and i have my digital nomad visa, what rate of tax do I pay? How is income tax calculated? Will digital nomads be taxed as a non-resident and will this be the case for as long as they hold the Digital Nomad visa

2) Do I have to submit annual or quarterly returns?

3) When I arrive in Spain and as I will be working, should I register with the Spanish tax authorities straight away?

4) Do I stop paying tax in my home country? Do I still have to submit a tax return in my home country?

5) will my employer pay tax on my salary in my home country?

6) will I pay social security here in Spain? Would we be exempt on paying tax in Spain on other worldwide assets and will we be exempt from the requirement of filling in the Modelo 720 form

7) is there any clarification to the rights of dependents and whether they can work in Spain or are they only allowed to work remotely in the same way the main Digital Nomad visa person does

New NLV applications, GV applications and renewals – increase in financial resources requirements 2023

IPREM will increase by 3.6% in 2023 in line with the Spanish budget. If you have started the NLV process and plan on attending a Spanish Consulate appointment in 2023, please make sure you have sufficient financial resources to reflect the increase in requirements.

It also applies for those of you who are renewing your NLVs or GVs, not just new visa applications.

Increase in Financial requirements for Visas Spain

For NLVs you will need to prove sufficient financial resources for the 2 year renewal period, not just 1 year. Let’s have a look at the figures.

  • This is an extra €2,501.37 for a married couple or €3,501.91 for a family of four in 2023.
  • For a single applicant it will be an increase for 2 year renewal of €2,001.09 in 2023.

Don’t forget you can apply for renewal of your TIE residency card 60 days before it expires so if you haven’t started yet there is still time!
