Tax treatment of emigrants from the Netherlands to Portugal and Spain. A Sunny Welcome in Portugal and Spain.

2 juli 2015

Both Portugal and Spain provide for beneficial individual income tax regimes for inward expatriates.

Since recently the Portuguese regime has even been improved, and also considering the absence of inheritance taxes and wealth taxation in Portugal the regime became very popular for internationally mobile persons. Its straightforward application and minimal requirements for access make it an attractive option for anyone seeking the combination of the Good Life and an efficient tax environment.

Spain has for Netherlands emigrants offered a literally Sunny Climate since long. Since the enactment of the Beckham law in 2005 also Spain has offered a beneficial tax regime, be it with a more narrow application than the Portuguese system (introduced in 2009). The taxation of Spanish real estate, in particular for inheritance tax purposes, and rules regarding the emigration to Spain during the calendar year are in practice important attention points.

During this seminar relevant tax and other legal issues for emigrants from the Netherlands to Portugal and Spain will be dealt with, with special emphasis on high net worth individuals. The speakers are highly qualified and experienced in dealing with this type of issue in their daily practice.

    The following issues will be dealt with
    •    Income taxation of emigration from the Netherlands
        •    The beneficial HNWI Income tax regime in Portugal
        •    The Beckham Law in Spain
        •    Real estate assets in Spain, either directly or through companies
        •    Portuguese and Spanish inheritance tax situations regarding real estate
