Understanding Tax Residency in Spain – 22nd March 2022
UK traders living and working in Spain are liable to pay tax on income and assets there. Make sure that you don’t mistakenly become liable for taxation in both countries, by understanding tax residency in Spain. In the past UK nationals could move, live, work, study, or retire freely in any EU country. But since 2021, all we are classified as non-European, making us third-country nationals. This affects not only the duration you can stay, it also dictates what activities you’re legally allowed to do. Each country has its own set of tax laws. As a business owner living and working in Spain you run the risk of dual residency tax disputes, whereby an innocent tax mistake leads to expensive legal consequences. If you qualify for tax residency in Spain, as well as the UK you may be liable to pay tax on the same income in both countries, known as ‘double taxation’. Find out more here.

March Top Tips
We are all aware of the pressures of inflation on our individual costs of living. Energy providers are not offering the most compelling deals for now, but shopping around for better savings on other utilities is one way to help to ease the pressure. Anyone signing up for a new contract, or up for a renewal of contract for services like broadband, telephone and TV should shop around and don’t be afraid to haggle. Most providers will negotiate a better deal if you have had a better quote elsewhere. These are our top tips.
Home Insurance Is Worth It
Unlike motor insurance, home insurance is not a legal requirement. It really only protects the policyholder. However, cutting out home insurance could be much more costly down the line if anything goes wrong. Like theft or the cost of repair works or replacing the essential items in your home if they get damaged. There are many affordable home insurance policies available that will help you out if the worst happens. So definitely keep or invest in this type of protection, to save you spending out later.
Home Energy Efficiency
There are government grants to help people improve insulation, upgrade appliances, and install solar panels or other renewable technologies.
