SubscribeSpain’s infrastructure, culture and climate make it one of the best destinations in which to live and work in the European Union. Also, the language and history Spain shares with Latin America make it the preferred gateway to Europe for Latin Americans. The country also continues to be a world-leading destination.
Indeed, according to the World Tourism Organization, before the COVID-19 pandemic, Spain received 83.7 million international tourists, making it the world’s second most popular tourist destination after France (and ahead of the
United States). Spanish legislation has been improved to encourage this trend and attract talent, high-tech projects and wealthy families. Golden visa programs have been introduced, as well as tax incentives for those coming to Spain to work or manage projects.
This chapter is a comprehensive introduction to Spanish legislation relevant to private clients, with a focus on how Spanish legislation and tax authorities approach foreign legal institutions such as trusts.
