Individual Income Tax (“IRS”)

Non-Residents Taxpayers

Rental Income

Rental income corresponds to the earnings from a property, such as lettings, sub-lettings.

Certain lettings costs may be deducted from the annual rental income and are listed below, along with some of the costs which are not deductible:

Allowable for deduction*: Not allowable for deduction:
Property Municipal Tax (“IMI”) Gardening costs
Condominium charges Utility Bills
Maintenance Expenses and repairs Maid service
Building Insurance Property Management Company fees
* All costs will have to be substantiated by the production of invoices.

Withholding tax will be applied if the annual rental income is more than 10.000 Euros and if paid by a company liable to Corporation Tax (e.g. Property management companies). However, this amount will then be deducted from the taxable amount.

The tax liability will be calculated as follows:

Annual Rental Income
- Annual Allowances        
= Taxable Income
x 15%                        
= Taxable amount
- Withholding Tax         
= Tax to be paid/refunded
