Am I eligible for the Impatriate regime law (Beckham Law)?
A special tax regime in Spain allows you to continue being taxed as a non-resident. The advantage of this special regime is that, as a non-resident, you will likely end up paying less tax than a “regular” tax resident in Spain.
To be eligible for the Beckham law you must: You must physically relocate to Spain to qualify, as only by becoming a tax resident there can you apply for the special tax regime.
Generally speaking the eligibility for application to the spanish Beckham Rule regime extends to:
- Foreign workers who relocate to Spain to engage in an economic activity, specifically those employed by a company
- Expatriates who hold managerial positions or other significant roles are considered among the administrators or employees, as the law does not specify this as a separate category.
- Individuals who move to Spain with the intention of performing remote work for an employer.
- Professionals with high qualifications who provide services to start-up companies or engage in training, research, development, and innovation activities, with at least 40% of their income generated from invoicing related to these services.
- Company administrators who assume positions in Spain, provided they do not hold more than 25% ownership in a company classified as asset-managing.
- Family members of the remote workers, which includes the spouse and any dependents
Who cannot apply for Beckham’s law?
- Freelancers or self-employed individuals, including those possessing a digital nomad visa.
- Sports professionals, including athletes, irrespective of their income level or status within their respective fields.
- It is incorrect to state that directors with ownership stakes exceeding 25% in Spanish companies are excluded. They remain eligible as long as their company is not classified as asset-managing, or if they apply through a startup or entrepreneur visa.
