The Spanish Tax Authority is now taking
unpaid taxes direct from bank accounts

2011 - Warning Letters
The tax authorities sent 300.000 letters to non resident property owners, informing them that there is no record of them paying their Non Resident taxes.

2012 - Final Tax Demands
Now being sent. Tax bills from 2006 onwards with hefty fines to follow. One bill per person, per property, per year, to Spanish holiday home addresses and with limited time to respond.

2013 - Consequences
If you ignore your tax obligations or these letters, your bank account will be frozen until your tax debt is cleared.

Remember: Non Resident Tax is not optional

The above came to me this morning by email I know it to be true, as we had a muddle up with Suma over our exact address of our property, this came from when they did a land grab job on us a few years ago. So if you have not paid for any reason at all beware.
