Business

Studio Purchase Price (City Center)
About €1,924 per square metre in Centro in October 2026, from Fotocasa asking prices for all flat sizes, not split by bedrooms. A 40 square metre flat at that rate is about €76,960. 7
Studio Purchase Price (Outside City)
About €1,488 per square metre in Santiago-Coronación in the same October 2026 Fotocasa index, the lowest district figure and still inside the city. A 40 square metre flat at that rate is about €59,520. 7
1-Bedroom Purchase Price (City Center)
About €1,924 per square metre in Centro in October 2026 (Fotocasa, all flat sizes). A 60 square metre flat at that rate is about €115,440. The index is not split by number of bedrooms. 7
1-Bedroom Purchase Price (Outside City)
About €1,488 per square metre in Santiago-Coronación in October 2026 (Fotocasa). A 60 square metre flat at that rate is about €89,280. The index is not split by number of bedrooms. 7
2-Bedroom Purchase Price (City Center)
About €1,924 per square metre in Centro in October 2026 (Fotocasa, all flat sizes). An 80 square metre flat at that rate is about €153,920. 7
2-Bedroom Purchase Price (Outside City)
About €1,488 per square metre in Santiago-Coronación in October 2026 (Fotocasa). An 80 square metre flat at that rate is about €119,040. 7
Corporate Tax
The general corporation tax rate is 25%. Newly created companies pay 15% in the first tax period in which they make a profit and in the following period. That 15% rate does not apply to equity companies or to new companies that belong to a group. 16
Dividend Withholding Tax
Dividends are savings income: 19% on the first €6,000, 21% to €50,000, 23% to €200,000, 27% to €300,000, and 30% above that. Dividends paid to a non-resident are withheld at 19% before any treaty rate. 15
Tax System
Residents pay Spanish income tax on worldwide income. Non-residents pay tax on Spanish-source income only. The Spain tax profile treats residence as 183 days in the year, or the centre of vital interests. 15 19
Highest Income Tax Bracket
The national general-income withholding scale reaches 47% above €300,000. Combined marginal income-tax rates vary by autonomous community, roughly 45–54%; the Spain tax profile records 54% as the effective top in the highest-tax regions. 15
VAT
21% standard VAT (IVA). A 10% reduced rate covers some food, new homes and tickets to live culture. A 4% super-reduced rate covers bread, milk, books and medicines. 17
Controlled Foreign Company (CFC) Rules
Yes. Spanish residents are taxed on a foreign company when they hold over 50% and the foreign corporate tax is under 75% of the tax that would be payable in Spain. 18
Property Tax
IBI is an annual municipal tax on owning real estate, and the city sets the rate. A current Jerez percentage was not on the national summary. There is also a local tax on the rise in urban land value when a property is sold. 17
Property Transaction Tax
In Andalusia, a resale from a private seller pays transfer tax at 7% (since 28 April 2021). A home you will live in, worth no more than €150,000, is 6%. A new home bought from a developer is charged VAT at 10%, not transfer tax. 20 17
Attractive Tax System for Digital Nomads
Qualifying newcomers, including eligible teleworkers, can elect the impatriate regime: 24% on Spanish-source employment income up to €600,000 and 47% above that, for the year of arrival and the next five tax years. Applicants must not have been Spanish tax resident in the previous five tax years; a telework visa alone does not establish tax eligibility. 21
