The Supreme Court will study for the first time whether non-EU citizens can deduct rental expenses in Spain
The high court admits an appeal by the State Attorney's Office against the National Court, which considered that they should have the same tax treatment as EU citizens.
Spain's Supreme Court will examine whether property owners residing outside the European Union can deduct rental expenses when calculating their tax liabilities. The Court's Administrative-Contentious Chamber has accepted a State Attorney's appeal against a 2023 Audiencia Nacional ruling that allowed a non-EU resident to do so, citing discrimination against EU and EEA residents. The Supreme Court must now determine if this tax disparity breaches EU law on free movement of capital.
