VAT Spain General<\/strong><\/h2>\n

VAT must be paid by SMEs on a quarterly basis in Spain and by the large company on a monthly basis. First we let you know about real time obligations.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

VAT Spain Real Time<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Spain has introduced in July 2017 a system of almost \u201creal-time\u201d delivery of VAT information. This system is relevant for the following companies that have to file a VAT return every month.[\/vc_column_text]\r\r

\n
    \n
  1. Companies registered in the Register of monthly VAT returns (REDEME).<\/li>\n
  2. Companies that have invoiced > 6.000.000 euros the previous\u00a0 year.<\/li>\n
  3. Companies unified in tax units<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\r\r[vc_empty_space height=”16px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

    VAT Spain Recovery<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Recovery can be standard (under the \u2018regular regime\u2019)\u00a0only in January. Usually the VAT is refunded after about five months or a message is received that an inspection will take place.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Companies can request the tax authorities to qualify for a\u00a0special regime\u00a0(also known as the export regime) which must be filed monthly, but which also means that VAT can be reclaimed\u00a0monthly.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1656961542884{margin-top: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
