FAQ
Common questions from UK nationals
Can UK citizens still buy property in Spain after Brexit?
Yes. Brexit has not changed the right of UK citizens to buy property in Spain. The legal process remains similar, although residency and length-of-stay rules have changed.
Do I need a Spanish will if I own a property in Spain?
In many situations a Spanish will is advisable. It can simplify probate, reduce delays and provide clarity for your heirs when more than one legal system is involved.
What taxes apply to UK residents with Spanish property?
Non-resident income tax, tax on rental income and capital gains, and in some cases wealth tax and local taxes. We analyse your specific situation and advise on the most efficient structure.
