GENERAL ISSUES

Governing regulations Law 29/1987, of 18 November, on Inheritance and Donations Tax, (BOE 19 December) Royal Decree 1629/1991, of 8 November, approving the Regulations on Inheritance

and Donations Tax, (BOE 16 November) HAP Order/2488/2014, of 29 December, approving self-assessment Inheritance and

Donations Tax forms 650, 651 and 655 and establishing the place, manner and deadline for submission, (BOE 31 December)

Purpose of the self-assessment The tax return must include assets and rights acquired by inheritance, bequest or any other succession document, and the amounts received by the beneficiaries of life insurance contracts when the contracting party is a person other than the beneficiary, except for the circumstances expressly regulated by Article 17.2a) of Law 35/2006, of 28 November, on Personal Income Tax and other tax regulations. Field of application The approved form shall apply to Inheritance and Donations Tax self-assessment tax returns when the taxpayers must meet their obligations for this Tax with the State Tax Administration, and therefore the income has not been transferred to the Autonomous Communities, pursuant to the provisions of Law 22/2009, of 18 December, regulating the financing system of the Autonomous Communities under joint government and Cities with a Statute of Autonomy, and amending certain tax regulations. Obligation to file A) Personal obligation Individuals with their usual place of residence in Spanish territory, as well as Spanish state representatives and civil servants abroad, are obliged to file a this tax return or self-assessment tax return for assets and rights acquired by inheritance, bequest or any other succession document.

B) Limited liability tax obligation Individuals who do not have their usual place of residence in Spanish territory are obliged to file a tax return or self-assessment for this tax for assets and rights acquired by inheritance, bequest or any other succession document, whatever their nature, that were located, could be exercised or had to be fulfilled in Spanish territory. The amounts received by beneficiaries of life insurance contracts are also subject when, if the recipient is a non-resident, the contract was signed in Spain with any insurance company, or when the insurance company is Spanish, regardless of the place the contract is signed. Limited liability taxpayers must assign a resident in Spain to represent them before the Tax Administration regarding their obligations under this tax. Usual place of residence The usual place of residence is determined in accordance with the Income Tax regulations. For the purposes of this tax, it shall be understood that an individual with their usual place of residence in Spanish territory has their usual place of residence in an Autonomous Community when they remain in that territory a greater number of days during the period of five previous years, counted from date to date, ending the day before accrual (death). Temporary absences shall be counted to determine the period of stay. Unless proven otherwise, it shall be considered that an individual stays in the territory of an Autonomous Community when their main residence is located in this territory, defined pursuant to the provisions of Article 54 of Royal Decree 439/2007, of 30 March, approving the Personal Income Tax Regulation. When it is not possible to determine that an individual stays in a territory as indicated above, the Autonomous Community where the taxpayer has their main centre of interest shall apply, understood as the territory where they obtain the majority of the taxable base for Income Tax, determined by the components of their income related to Article 28 of Law 22/2009, of 18 December, regulating the financing system of Autonomous Communities under joint government and Cities with a Statute of Autonomy, and amending certain tax regulations.

Filing period The filing period is six months from the death of the deceased, or from the date the declaration of death becomes official.

Where to file the return (Paseo de la Castellna, nº 147, bajo CP: 28046 MADRID) Once the form has been completed, you must deposit the self-assessment total in any deposit entity in Spanish territory that collaborates with the Tax Agency in tax collection management (Banks, Savings Banks or Credit Co-operatives). Once the amount has been deposited, the tax return shall be filed at the National Tax Management Office, together with the document or declaration containing or indicating the taxable event, as well as the documentation listed in the following section. When a self-assessment does not result in a tax payable, it must be filed, together with the documentation that must be attached to the form and the other self-assessments filed in relation to the same inheritance or donation, directly at the National Tax Management Office, after filing, where appropriate, a request to defer or pay in instalments the compensation or payment by furnishing Spanish Historic Heritage assets. When the tax income corresponds to the autonomous cities of Ceuta or Melilla, the location for filing the return referred to in sections 2 and 3 of this article shall be the respective Tax Agency Delegation.

Assets and rights common to both spouses shall also be exempt when they are used to develop the business or professional activity of either spouse, provided they meet the requirements of the above paragraph. Two. Stakes in entities, listed on organised markets or not, provided they meet the following conditions: a) That the main activity of the entity is not movable or immovable property management.
