Deregistration as Tax Resident in Spain

This service is for English-speaking people who are leaving Spain and want to close off their tax affairs there. It helps them tell the Spanish tax office that they no longer live in Spain for tax purposes, and update their details.

How it works

• Form 030: help filling in and sending this form, which is used to tell the tax office about a change of tax residence and personal details.
• Deadlines: a change of address must be reported within three months, or earlier if it is linked to a yearly income tax return.
• Online filing: help sending the form through the tax office's website (AEAT).
• Proof: getting confirmation that you have been removed, to keep for the future.

What the service includes

• Advice on the date from which you stop being a Spanish tax resident, based on how long you stayed in Spain that year.
• Help declaring your new home and giving an address abroad where the tax office can reach you.
• Handling the forms online or on paper, to help avoid fines for missing steps.
