Women invoice, and the Treasury collects? The tax toll that Shakira will pay in Madrid

The Spanish Tax Agency will retain 24% of Colombian singer Shakira's cash, merchandising, and box office earnings from her 13 concerts in Madrid. The concerts, part of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, took place from September 18 to October 12, 2026, at the Estadio Shakira in the Iberdrola Music venue. The agency will closely monitor the event's technical costs to prevent inflated expenses from being used to camouflage the artist's income.

The tax regulations apply to non-resident artists, and the agency will consider peripheral income, such as merchandise sales and image rights, as part of the taxable base.
