TAX SWINDLE (AGAIN)

The spanish tax agency (Agencia Tributaria) warns of a new e-mailing swindle.

Again, this year we remind you to be careful if you receive any e-mail at your inbox about a taxes refund. Fake e-mails sent are being detected as a way of phising assault. The e-mail forges the Agencia Tributaria signature and logo.

The e-mail asks you to fill personal data in an external link, again with fake Agencia Tributaria signature and logo. The tax agency suggests to be careful with suspect comunications. Even more if these e-mails ask for bank accounts numbers.

Finally, bear in mind that spanish tax agency won't ask you by e-mail for any personal or economic information, credit card numbers or taxpayers bank accounts.

FIRST QUARTER TAXES

April has arrived so here it is the first quarter tax declaration period. The deadline is April 20th. But if they are going to be charged on bank account, the deadline is April 15th. Do not wait until the last day and remind to bring us the remaining invoices in advance.

Apart from this, the Income tax campaign oficially starts today, so on the next weeks you should receive the fiscal details for the Declaración de la Renta 2010. The presentation period for the renta will be from 2nd May until 30th June.

If you are not a VP ADVISERS client, you can contract our services in order to produce your 2010 Income Tax just for 30€. And if you need to present your Non resident tax, our fees are also 30€, so forget about paying expensive quotas or fees. VP ADVISERS wants to help you and make things easier for you.

NEW BUSINESS RISING UP

The number of companies created in Spain increased by 2.2 percent in 2010, after three consecutive years of decline. The number of companies started up in 2010 totalled 79,963, 2.2% more than in 2009, representing the first increase after three years of continual decline.

FIGHT AGAINST FISCAL FRAUD

Spain's Tax Office (AEAT) will be paying closer attention to professionals they suspect of failing to fully declare their income, and those claiming unemployment benefit while working on the side, in an effort to bring a greater portion of the country's underground economy to the surface.

At a time when the government is striving to fill a huge hole in its finances, the AEAT's action plan for 2011 was presented Monday in the official gazette. Tax officials are being asked to be on the lookout for professionals with signs of wealth that are incongruent with their tax declarations. They will also be trying to keep tabs on false declarations of expenses.

In their battle with tax cheats, inspectors will step up joint action with their colleagues in the treasury and labor arms of the Social Security system, and will make visits to businesses where undeclared activity is suspected.

2010 NON RESIDENT TAX JUST FOR 30€

2011 has arrived and within it, it also starts the period to declare the 2010 Non Resident Tax for those owners of a property in Spain who are residents in a foreign country. You have the whole year (2011) in order to declare it, but as you should already have the paperwork from SUMA (Alicante region office for local taxes) it could be a great idea letting this presented from now.

A person is considered resident in Spain by the Tax Office in this cases:

- Spending more than 183 days (Half year) in Spain.
- Has the work activity main core set in Spain.
- His/her wife, husband, and/or children until 18 years old are residents in Spain.

The fiscal residence in another country has to be certified by the Fiscal Authorities from that country. And usually the certificates are valid for a year.

A person could have the residence certificate in a country, but could not be consider fiscal residence in it. Residence and Fiscal Residence are different things.

A house could also being rented by its owners and if they are non resident, they have to declare every quarter the incomes in a different income tax. The time in the year

Normally we talk about the Non Resident Tax only over properties, but it is applied for all the incomes that a Non Resident could receive in Spain (Job, Renting, Capital Gains, etc). The deadline to declare the tax changes depending on what kind of incomes are you receving.

We have one of the lowest quotas in the are. Our fees are only 30€. Come to visit us in our office. We will be happy to welcome you and we also offer low cost fees in other services including business registration, accountancy, conveyancing, taxation, NIE& Residence, Traffic Managements, Wills and more.
