Moving to Spain changes where you pay tax, not whether you file in the United States. What you need is advice from lawyers who read both the Spanish rules and the US–Spain tax treaty, so that each source of income is taxed once and in the right place.

Planning to move your residence to Spain?

In tax matters, prevention is the best defense

We analyze your situation, identify the risks and the opportunities, and design a personal tax plan that keeps you compliant in Spain while you remain a US taxpayer.

Our team is made up of lawyers who specialize in tax law. We advise individuals, self-employed professionals and companies, weighing the tax and asset consequences of every decision on both sides of the Atlantic and reducing the risk of penalties, surcharges and audits.

Tax advice for Americans moving to or investing in Spain

We understand what it takes to start a business or move your life to another country.

We go through your profile in detail —personal situation, sources of income, assets in the United States and elsewhere— to establish when you become a Spanish tax resident under the 183-day rule, whether the Beckham regime is open to you, and how the US–Spain tax treaty applies to each type of income.

From there we design a step-by-step plan and walk you through it: electing the Beckham regime within the deadline, your exposure to Spain's wealth tax and how far it varies between autonomous communities, Modelo 720 reporting of your US accounts and assets, non-resident tax and Modelo 210 if you keep a property here, and inheritance tax, which in Spain is paid by the heir and not by the estate.

REQUEST ADVICE

That is why we built a service for US citizens who want to live, work, retire or invest in Spain, with the tax position clear from the first day.
