Thinking about special tax regimes in Spain? One of the most beneficial regimes available for new arrivals is often nicknamed the “Beckham Law”... but timing is everything.
The simple way I explain the Beckham Regime ('Beckham's law' in Spain) to my clients.
- You pay 24% flat tax on Spanish income (up to €600K)
- You don’t pay tax on worldwide income (UK dividends, rentals etc.)
But: you must apply within 6 months of registering for Spanish Social Security
And if you miss it, you can’t go back.
