The quarterly and yearly returns that come with living, working or owning property in Spain, kept and filed in English by a firm of tax lawyers, for a fixed fee.
Most of the people who contact this firm arrive with a cross-border question: a move to Spain, a pension paid from another country, shares in a foreign employer, a company abroad. Once that question is answered, a second one follows almost every time: who is going to file the returns every quarter and every year, and can they do it in English?
That is what this section is for. The recurring work is done on Salama Tax, the accounting platform of SALAMA LEGAL SLP, by the same firm and under the direction of the same lawyer. It runs on fixed fees, with a client area where documents are uploaded, invoices are issued and every filed return is kept.
What makes it different from a local gestoría is the starting point. The books are kept by people who deal every day with treaties, foreign currency, clients in other countries and second tax systems, so those things are handled as routine and not as exceptions.

It tells you which returns apply to you and what the fee is, before you sign anything.
It lists the returns we file for you, the fee and the authority to act on your behalf, and nothing else.
Invoices and receipts go into your folder as they arrive. We read, classify and record them.
Before each deadline you receive the figures. Once you are satisfied, we file and send you the receipts.
It is recurring compliance for individuals: the self-employed, property owners, pensioners. It is priced as a subscription because the work repeats.
It is not a substitute for advice on a transaction or a dispute. Planning a move, structuring an investment, applying for the special regime for new arrivals or answering an inspection are engagements of their own, described under how we work. It does not cover companies, which need corporate tax returns and annual accounts, or the filing of tax returns in other countries.
We work in English and Spanish.
