The things people ask us most often about tax, gestorías, and accounting help in Seville as a foreign resident.
New autonomo registrants benefit from a reduced flat rate in their first two years. The base cuota is currently 80 euros per month for year one, but in practice most registrants pay approximately 88 euros per month once the mandatory MEI surcharge (Mecanismo de Equidad Intergeneracional) is added. This is a solidarity contribution toward the pension system and applies to all autonomo workers. After the reduced rate period ends, your monthly contributions are calculated on a sliding scale based on your net income. A gestoría will calculate your correct contribution from the start and adjust it as your income changes.
For a monthly fee, your gestoría will take care of just about everything for you so that you’re paying the least amount of tax in Spain legally possible. If you own an SL or work as an autónomo in Seville, you’re required to pay taxes at the end of every quarter (every three months) and a tax agent in Seville will arrange your expenses against your income so that you know in advance how much you have to pay in taxes for that quarter.
For SL owners, tax advisors in Seville will also draft and arrange any nóminas on behalf of your Sociedad Limitada, whether they’re for yourself or other employees in the company. A gestoría is also there to answer any questions you have around tax or company formation and will usually get back to you the same working day.
Each one is different but generally you’ll be able to communicate with tax advisors in Seville via email, over the phone, and WhatsApp. For most matters, we advise expats to email their gestoría as this is the safest form of communication should you ever need proof of something in the future. WhatsApp is usually fine if you need quick answers. For example, you will need to visit a notary in Seville when forming an SL and WhatsApp is easier if you need quick clarification from your gestoría here.
Setting up an SL in Spain is complicated even for trained accountants and Spanish bureaucracy is much different here than in America or the UK, for example. You will have to speak to a tax advisor in Seville in order to understand what your obligations will be moving forward with an SL and whether you’re even in a position to safely open one. A tax agent here will be able to tell you which route (autónomo vs SL) makes the most sense for you based on your annual income, as both options have their advantages depending on your specific financial situation.
The declaración de la renta is Spain’s mandatory tax return. The filing threshold is €22,000 for those with income from a single source, but drops to €12,643 if you have income from multiple payers, which applies to most freelancers, autónomo workers, and SL owners. Anyone above these thresholds is required to file between April and June each year.
Doing so yourself is possible but many expats don’t realise that paying a gestoría a one-time fee to complete it on their behalf is worth the money as the Hacienda may owe you a lot of money from the previous fiscal year. Sending your declaración de la renta back incomplete or with the wrong details would result in you missing out on what you’re owed or even having to pay the Spanish government more money. We always recommend expats contact tax advisors in Seville to get their declaración de la renta done right.
