the taxable person is the donee.<\/strong> (beneficiary of the donated goods and rights).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-y-qu-normativa-auton-mica-me-aplica\">What regional regulations apply to me?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It is the points of connection between Communities that make it possible to know which Autonomous Community regulation applies in each case, in addition to the State regulation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the case of donations, the <strong>connection points<\/strong> could be summarised as follows:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>The <strong>donation of a property<\/strong> taxed in the autonomous community <strong>where the aforementioned property is located<\/strong>.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Whereas <strong>the donation of any other property or right<\/strong> (including the donation of money), is taxed at <strong>the autonomous community of residence of the donee<\/strong> (the recipient of the donation)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-y-qu-ocurre-si-el-donatario-beneficiario-de-la-donaci-n-es-no-residente\">What if the donee (beneficiary of the donation) is non-resident?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A few years ago, in these cases, as in the case of inheritances, as the beneficiary\/grantee was not resident in a specific Autonomous Community, only the State regulations were applicable, which established fewer allowances, deductions and reductions than the Autonomous Communities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As explained in the previous post, the <strong>Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in Case C-127\/12, Judgment of 3 September 2014.<\/strong> determined that <strong>such treatment was discriminatory<\/strong> for EU citizens.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Accordingly, the Inheritance and Gift Tax Act was amended to add the following for donation cases:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>In case of <strong>donation of immovable property situated in Spain<\/strong>the donee resident in a Member State has the right to apply the regulations adopted by <strong>the Autonomous Community where the property is located.<\/strong><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>In case of donation of a <strong>immovable property situated outside Spain, but in a Member State<\/strong>the donee\/beneficiary resident in Spain, may apply <strong>the regulations of the Autonomous Community where the recipient resides.<\/strong><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>In the case of <strong>acquisition of any other type of property or right<\/strong>the donee resident in a Member State has the right to apply the rules of the Autonomous Community <strong>where the property has been located for the greatest number of days in the immediately preceding five-year period<\/strong>.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-pero-y-qu-aplica-para-los-no-residentes-extracomunitarios\">But what about non-EU non-residents?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A priori, non-EU nationals were excluded from the application of the latter rule and were therefore obliged to apply only the state rules.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>However, the <strong>The Spanish Supreme Court changed this criterion<\/strong> through its <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.poderjudicial.es\/search\/AN\/openDocument\/87b7378fb894c8bc\/20180305\">Judgment number 242\/2018<\/a> of 19 February 2018<\/strong>The Commission considers that Community law is also infringed by unequal treatment of non-EU citizens.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This assumes that <strong>non-EU residents are also subject to the rules of the Autonomous Community<\/strong> corresponding to it according to the rules of connection indicated above, as confirmed by the Directorate General for Taxation in its recent <a href=\"https:\/\/petete.tributos.hacienda.gob.es\/consultas\/?num_consulta=V0282-20\">Binding Consultation v0282-20<\/a> of 7 February 2020.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>And, furthermore, this judgment <strong>opens the door to claiming a refund of undue revenues<\/strong> of all those self-assessments of Gift (or Inheritance) Tax that have been settled in the last 4 years in accordance with state regulations without having been able to apply the corresponding regional regulations. In this way, <strong>affected taxpayers could submit an application<\/strong> rectification of the self-assessment, applying now the deductions, rebates or reductions approved by the Autonomous Community, and <strong>requesting repayment of the difference in the amount paid plus interest for late payment<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<p>Si necesitas asesoramiento especializado para este tipo de tr\u00e1mites, puedes contactar con <a href=\"https:\/\/merac.es\/en\/\">abogados en M\u00e1laga<\/a> con experiencia en derecho tributario y sucesiones.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cuadro-resumen-impuesto-donaciones\">Donation tax summary table<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The following table summarises the different scenarios of a donation and the applicable rules in each case:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/ifHDqhSVXxSVkKE_LJtPpJ5vpSFXHX8FMLZ-rdENuf8QtBiEgJmnXKjr5IXayNkiCv_iCr_gTUtOXQnC1Tzl8NqYw3gdCOqfttsi_jYTqdTQKs0kPWl0Rr3PAmSDq7v3DgjMW8x__W69AKGAiQ\" alt=\"\" width=\"739\" height=\"567\" \/>\r\n<figcaption><em>MERAC - taxation table Donation tax<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las Comunidades Aut\u00f3nomas han regulado bonificaciones en el Impuesto sobre donaciones que tambi\u00e9n resultan aplicables a los no residentes. <\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5783,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29,14,34,17],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>\u00bfC\u00f3mo tributa mi Donaci\u00f3n si soy No Residente?
