Beckham Law application · Spain
The special tax regime for people moving to Spain for work. We handle your Beckham Law application, from eligibility assessment to filing and ongoing compliance.
Who qualifies
You must not have been tax-resident in Spain in the five tax years before the year you relocate, and you must move here for one of these reasons.
A new job in Spain, or posted here by your employer.
Employed by a company abroad, working from Spain.
Moving to run a company as its director.
Launching an innovative business in Spain.
Specialists for start-ups and research.
The regime can extend to the people who move with you.
Missing the statutory deadline will generally prevent you from opting in for that relocation.
Requirements, rates, Modelo 149, family and the income that stays outside Spanish tax, in one guide.
What you gain
For the year you become resident and the five that follow.
What applies to any other tax resident.
We run both scenarios before you file.
How we work
Seven steps, from your first call to your sixth Beckham year.
The five-year test, your route into the regime and whether it pays off for you.
Timing of your move, your residence year and which family members can join.
Contracts, Social Security registration and your assets abroad, set up before the clock starts.
Your personal calendar of deadlines, from Modelo 149 to your first Modelo 151.
Employer certificate, Social Security proof, residence permit and family documents, gathered with you.
Modelo 149 filed electronically, and the certificate your employer needs to withhold at 24%.
Your annual Modelo 151 and a yearly check that you still meet the conditions.
Fixed fee
Your initial consultation fee is deducted. Family members and annual returns are quoted on request.
Where we work
Remotely
Tax work rarely needs a meeting. We advise clients relocating from abroad, and those already living here, by video call and e-signature: from London and Paris to Dubai, Tokyo and Shanghai.
Questions
Only if you are an employee.
Not necessarily.
Often, yes.
You will generally be unable to opt in for that relocation.
Yes, if they meet the conditions.
Yes, every year.
Next step
Tell us when you start work in Spain and how you will be working. We will tell you if you qualify, what it saves you and file before the window closes.
