Non-resident taxes

[parallax]

Hello Felix,

I wounder if you could provide me some information with regards to non-resident taxes. I bought an apartment in La Tercia in Aug'08. One of my friends told me that we have to pay non-resident annual tax. I am not sure what it is and where would i get the form from? How much we have to pay? I had a quick quote from a solicitor and they are charging 200 Euros as their fee and 75 Euros for actual tax. I am sure we should be able to do this ourselves. Any information with regards to the non-resident tax will be highly appreciated.

Regards

Hi Raj, I wonder if you had any luck in finding out about dealing with the non-resident's tax? If so, I'd be glad to hear how you got on.

Hi

I let my lawyer deal with this for me.  I think it is worth the money to pay them to sort this out for me on an annual basis.  Others may have a different opinion and handle it themselves but.... 

Hope this helps

Thanks, Sandra - we may go down this road.

Hi all,
Just wondered how other owners are paying their non-resident tax, have you managed to sort it yourselves or are you paying your solicitor. We paid our solicitor to do it last year but wondered if there was an easy way to do it, failing that we'll be paying solicitor again?

Hi Richard

We've put ours on direct debit from the bank - one less thing to worry about.

Hi Richard,

These links are worth taking a look at, the 1st link is a step by step guide to DIY, with a one off payment.

The other two are specialist companies, both with an annual cost still lower than lawyers / solicitor costs though.
