Spanish non-resident tax calculator: empty home and rental income (Modelo 210)

Spanish non-resident tax on property is a flat rate on a base, and the base depends on how you use the home. Empty or used by you: imputed income of 1.1% or 2% of the cadastral value, times your ownership share and the days, taxed at 19% if you live in the EU or EEA and 24% otherwise. Let: EU and EEA residents pay 19% on rent minus related expenses; everyone else, including UK, Swiss and US residents, pays 24% on gross rent. On a typical empty flat that is a few hundred euros a year; on rent, the gross-versus-net rule usually matters more than the rate.

At a glance

  • - Empty home: cadastral value × 1.1% (2% if the value was not revised from 2012 onwards) × ownership share × days / days in the year, then 19% or 24%. No expenses.
  • - Rent, EU/EEA resident: (rent − expenses related to the Spanish rent) × 19%.
  • - Rent, any other resident (UK, Switzerland, US…): gross rent × 24%, no expenses.
  • - Let for part of the year: rent for the let days, imputed income for the rest.

Inputs needed

Cadastral value (on the IBI receipt or in the Catastro), whether the value was revised from 2012 onwards (1.1%) or not (2%), your ownership share, days owned and not let, rent received, expenses linked to the rent if you are an EU/EEA resident, and your country of tax residence.

Formula used

Imputed income = cadastral value × imputation percentage × ownership share × non-let days / days in the year. Rental base = gross rent, minus related expenses only for EU/EEA residents. Tax = base × 19% (EU/EEA) or 24% (others). Each owner files a separate Modelo 210 for their share.

Why the app asks for the cadastral fact

Municipality valuation history can be nuanced. The calculator does not guess: it asks you to confirm whether the 1.1% or 2% basis applies, and it stops before checkout for cases it does not cover, such as a sale, a company owner or usufruct.

FAQ

How much is Spanish non-resident tax on an empty home?

For a home with a revised cadastral value of €98,000 owned all year by one person: €1,078 of imputed income, so €204.82 for an EU/EEA resident and €258.72 for a UK or other non-EU resident. The 2025 return is due by 31 December 2026.

How is Spanish non-resident tax calculated on rent?

EU/EEA residents pay 19% on rent minus related expenses; other residents, including UK residents since Brexit, pay 24% on gross rent with no expenses. 2026 rent with tax to pay, grouped annually or declared separately for October-December, is declared between 1 and 20 April 2027; separately declared April-September 2026 receipts kept their July and October 2026 windows.

Is the 1.1% rate always available?

No. For 2023, 2024 and 2025 it applies where the municipality's cadastral values were revised from 1 January 2012 onwards; otherwise use 2%. If you are not sure, verify before checkout.

Do expenses reduce imputed income?

No. The imputed-income base is taxed without deducting any expense.
