The buyer of the property is responsible for paying the tax. It applies when purchasing second-hand properties, i.e. resale properties.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This distinguishes it from new-build properties, where instead VAT (Impuesto sobre el Valor A\u00f1adido, IVA) and a stamp duty are payable.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ITP is a regional tax. This means that each of Spain\u2019s 17 <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Autonomous_communities_of_Spain\">autonomous communities,<\/a> as well as the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, can set their own tax rates and specific regulations.  <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Wie-hoch-ist-die-Grunderwerbsteuer-in-Spanien?\">How high is the property transfer tax in Spain?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact amount of property transfer tax payable depends on two main factors: the applicable tax rate in the relevant autonomous community and the tax base.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Determining the Tax Base<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tax base for the ITP is generally the higher of the following two values:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The purchase price of the property as stated in the public deed (escritura p\u00fablica).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The reference value (Valor de Referencia), set by the Spanish General Directorate for Cadastre.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Valor de Referencia was introduced in 2022 and is based on average market prices reported by notaries and land registries for property transactions in the respective area.<br\/><br\/><br\/> <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It aims to ensure a realistic valuation for tax purposes and differs from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idealista.it\/de\/news\/finanzen-in-italien\/2022\/03\/09\/109196-was-ist-der-katasterwert-einer-immobilie-und-wie-wird-er-berechnet\">cadastral value <\/a>(valor catastral), which is usually lower and used for other taxes such as the property tax (IBI). It is therefore advisable to check the current reference value of the property before making a purchase. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Important<\/strong>: The regional ITP rate has a direct and significant impact on your total costs.

Missing this deadline can result in costly penalties and interest charges. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The process for paying the ITP involves the following steps:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Completing the Tax Form:<\/strong><br\/>The \u201cModelo 600\u201d form must be completed carefully and accurately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Submission and Payment:<\/strong><br\/>The completed form, along with additional documents (copy of the purchase deed, ID documents, etc.), is submitted to the relevant regional tax authority (Agencia Tributaria) or an authorised bank, and the tax amount is paid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Submitting the Payment Confirmation:<\/strong><br\/> Proof of tax payment is a mandatory requirement for registering the property in your name at the Spanish land registry.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Good to know: <\/strong>Some regions now allow the ITP to be processed and paid online. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reductions and exemptions<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A full exemption from ITP when buying property is not possible. However, many regions offer reduced rates for certain buyer groups or property types.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those who may benefit include young buyers under 35, families with several children, or people with disabilities, provided the new property becomes their main residence. People moving to rural or structurally weak areas to help revitalise them may also be eligible for discounts.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A practical example: In Madrid, large families may be able to purchase a property with an ITP rate of just 4%. These benefits are often only granted on the condition that you genuinely use the property as your main residence and are already registered as a taxpayer in Spain. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/globaltaxsaving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Madird_immobilien.jpg\" alt=\"Buildings in Madrid: allowances for real estate purchases\" class=\"wp-image-105716\" style=\"object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globaltaxsaving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Madird_immobilien.jpg 640w, https:\/\/globaltaxsaving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Madird_immobilien-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 640px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Was-passiert,-wenn-die-ITP-nicht-gezahlt-wird?\">What happens if the ITP is not paid?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Failure to pay or late payment of the property transfer tax can have several consequences:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Interest on arrears and penalties:<\/strong><br\/>The Spanish tax authorities charge interest on the outstanding amount as well as additional fines, which can significantly increase the tax debt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Problems with land registry registration:<\/strong><br\/>Without proof of ITP payment, the property cannot be registered in the name of the new owner at the land registry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Restrictions on selling or transferring the property:<\/strong><br\/>As long as the tax debt remains unpaid, it may be difficult or even impossible to sell or otherwise transfer the property in the future.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Possible seizure:<\/strong><br\/>In extreme cases, the tax authority may take enforcement action to recover the debt, including seizing assets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though failure to pay the ITP does not invalidate the purchase contract itself, it can cause problems if you plan to use, rent out, or later sell the property.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Wie-Global-Tax-Saving-Sie-unterst&#xFC;tzt\">How Global Tax Saving supports you<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With over 30 years of expertise in Spanish tax and legal consulting, we at <a href=\"https:\/\/globaltaxsaving.com\/en\">Global Tax Saving<\/a> help you determine the correct amount of property transfer tax and provide comprehensive advice on all tax-related aspects of your property purchase in Spain.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Personalised Advice:<\/strong><br\/>Your situation and goals form the basis for a tailored strategy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tax Optimisation:<\/strong><br\/>We explore all legal options for regional tax benefits to ensure your tax burden is as low as possible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Processing<\/strong>:<br\/>We support you in preparing and submitting the required documents on time and in communicating with the Spanish authorities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Legal Certainty:<\/strong><br\/> We guarantee that all tax obligations are met correctly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><strong>International Expertise:<\/strong><\/strong><br\/>We support clients of all nationalities and communicate fluently in German, English, and Spanish.
