TAX · PENALTY RISK

Pay property transfer tax (ITP) on a resale property — roughly 6–11% of the price, set by each autonomous community

Buying a resale property triggers ITP at your region's rate — the title's range shows how much geography matters. It's self-assessed and paid shortly after completion, and the deed generally can't be registered until it's settled, which is why it sits right behind the notary appointment in your roadmap.
WHEN IT'S DUE
Due within 30 days after you complete your property purchase.
WHY IT MATTERS
Missing this can trigger a financial penalty. Verified against an official government source (AEAT, extranjería, BOE).
WHERE YOU LIVE MATTERS
The specifics are set by each comunidad autónoma — the official source covers the national rules; your region's own rates and windows apply. Get Camino's interview asks where you're settling and flags this step accordingly.
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.
