The Office offers a comprehensive legal and tax advisory service for property donations in Spain. Our team of lawyers and tax advisors will handle all aspects related to the donation, from drafting the public deed before a notary to ensuring compliance with legal requirements. Additionally, we manage the calculation and declaration of the Inheritance and Donations Tax, helping to minimize tax burdens for both donors and recipients.
In Spain, succession is carried out through a notarized process based on the deceased’s will, if one exists. The will must be signed in front of a notary and registered in the Central Registry of Last Wills. Only heirs or their legal representatives can obtain an official copy after the testator’s death.
The N.I.E. is a tax number for foreigners, both residents and non-residents, which allows them to manage affairs in Spain, but it is not an ID document nor does it grant the right to live or work in the country.
The Office offers assistance regarding the obligation of residency or not. EU/EEA citizens must show proof of employment, financial solvency, and health insurance, while non-Europeans need a residence visa.
