Spain's Beckham Law caps your Spanish income tax for six fiscal years. We file it, defend it, and integrate it with your US/UK obligations.

Estrategeos is an authorised filing agent (colaborador social) with the Spanish Tax Agency and a registered tax agent with HM Revenue & Customs. If you are moving from the UK, the year of the move has two sides; one team handles both and files on your behalf.
We file your Beckham election and annual return for you, with no Spanish digital certificate or Cl@ve needed.
Your UK return for the year you leave and for any later year in which you still have UK income.
If you keep a UK Ltd, we represent it before HMRC for Corporation Tax.
We coordinate the double taxation treaty so the same income is not taxed twice.
Tax direction led by an economist registered with the REAF · Official Association of Economists of Madrid · Professional indemnity insurance in force through the Official Association of Economists of Madrid.
We act with your authorisation: power of attorney or social collaboration with the AEAT, and HMRC’s online agent services.
Present my case →Three cumulative conditions. If you tick all three, there's a case. If one fails, there's still a route — it just isn't pure Beckham anymore. This is where the regime is won or lost.
Realistic timing, not a sales pitch. Dates depend on AEAT, not us — but we control sequencing, deliverables, and document trail.
30 minutes. We confirm scope, cross-border risks (LLC, RSUs, signing bonus) and a fixed quote. No commitment.
You upload contract, prior non-residence proof and registration document. We draft Form 149 and, where applicable, Form 030.
Form 149 filed electronically with AEAT. AEAT issues the document confirming the election within ten working days.
Form 151 at the close of the first fiscal year. Coordination with your foreign tax preparer (US, UK, DE) and a mid-year withholding review.
The impatriate regime isn't for everyone. These are the three profiles we cover daily and where it delivers real margin against the general PIT.
People with US LLCs, vesting RSUs, stock options or signing bonuses. Common case: tech executives relocating from US, Canadian or UK roles to Spain, often with multi-jurisdiction inheritance planning. Simultaneous fronts: Beckham, Form 720/721, US Form 8833 and, where applicable, the Spain-India tax treaty. The typical qualification mistake here costs the entire regime.
Via article 93.1.b LIRPF — with a favourable ENISA report or, alternatively, hired by a startup qualifying as an "emerging company" under Spain's Law 28/2022. Narrow margin, well-prepared file.
Spouse, children under 25 (or any age with a disability) and, without marriage, the other parent of the children can join if they arrive with the primary or before the primary's first year under the regime ends, and if their combined taxable bases are lower than the primary's.
The special impatriate regime (Art. 93 LIRPF) lets you pay tax as a non-resident — a flat 24% on the first €600,000 of employment income and 47% on the excess — for the year of relocation and the following five fiscal years. Procedural rules are set out in articles 113 to 120 of the PIT Regulations.
Fixed fee per engagement, never per hour. The exact range depends on the real complexity of the case — US LLC, multi-employer, equity events (RSUs, stock options), international wealth, AEAT cross-border risks — and is set after the initial assessment, which is free and ends with a firm written quote. We do not publish default rates because every Beckham is different and a low anchor misleads more than it helps.
Since Spain's Law 28/2022 (the Startup Act), yes — with caveats. A highly qualified professional working for emerging companies, and an entrepreneur with a favourable ENISA report, can both apply. A traditional freelancer with foreign clients does not fit by default — we analyse case by case, and it usually requires restructuring the invoicing setup.
Yes, it's one of our recurring case types. We handle Spanish-side income attribution from the LLC, Form 720/721 reporting where applicable, transfer pricing, and Beckham compatibility by configuring the LLC as a foreign employer. We coordinate with the client's US preparer for Form 8833 and the Spain-US tax treaty.
It depends on the cause. If exclusion is triggered by a supervening breach — extended absence from Spain, change of qualifying ground — we rebuild taxation under the general PIT and propose voluntary regularisation of the current year. If the loss arrives via an AEAT audit with a proposed exclusion, we file written allegations (art. 99 LGT) and, where appropriate, an appeal before the competent TEAR.
English and Spanish, both fully operational. Bilingual documentation — engagement letter, year-end summaries, allegations — when the client needs it for their foreign tax counterpart. For DACH cases, we work in English and Spanish with German terminology support via the Estrategeos team when needed.
The Beckham Law applied end-to-end. No hourly rate. No surprises in the first fiscal year.
