TAX · PENALTY RISK

File non-resident imputed income tax (Modelo 210) on a Spanish property you don't rent out — based on cadastral value, due by 31 Dec of the following year, while not yet tax resident

The title describes Spain's quirkiest property tax: own a Spanish home while not (yet) tax resident and Hacienda imputes a notional income on it — even if it sits empty — filed on Modelo 210 by the title's deadline. It stops applying once you're tax resident; until then it's an annual ritual many owners genuinely never hear about until the letter arrives.
WHEN IT'S DUE
A yearly obligation — each year's window closes at the end of December.
WHY IT MATTERS
Missing this can trigger a financial penalty. Verified against an official government source (AEAT, extranjería, BOE).
WHAT COMES FIRST
Sign completion deed (escritura de compraventa) before a notary and pay the balance

LOLA'S TIP
If in doubt, a gestor can prepare this in a day — cheap insurance against a mis-filing.
Where does this fall in your move?
Whether this step even applies — and when it's due — depends on your passport, work, family and plans. Answer a few questions and Get Camino builds your full roadmap, every step in the right order with real deadlines.
