Frequently Asked Questions About Inheritance in Spain

As a non-resident, do I have to pay Spanish Inheritance Tax?

Yes, if you inherit assets located in Spain (like property or bank accounts), you are liable for Spanish Inheritance Tax, regardless of your residency status. However, significant regional deductions are available in Andalusia that can often reduce the amount payable.

What happens if I don’t have a Spanish will?

If you die without a Spanish will, the law of your country of residence will typically apply to your assets. However, this can lead to a more complicated, lengthy, and expensive legal process for your heirs. A Spanish will simplifies the procedure significantly for assets located in Spain.

How can I reduce my Inheritance Tax bill in Andalusia?

Andalusia offers generous tax allowances and reductions for close relatives (spouses, children, and parents). Proper legal planning and applying the correct deductions are key. Our inheritance solicitors can advise you on the best strategies to legally minimise your tax liability.

What is the deadline for paying Inheritance Tax in Spain?

The deadline for filing and paying Spanish Inheritance Tax is six months from the date of death. It is possible to apply for a six-month extension, but this must be requested within the first five months.
