Tax

With respect to your potential tax situation in Spain you should discuss this with your gestor when you have found one locally. Spain is not the tax haven it once was and the authorities, local and national, are tightening up on taxation. Taxes are at the moment lower than they are in many other EU states but despite this the black economy continues to be very common but at some stage the authorities here may realise that a stronger clampdown on tax evasion could bring a lot more income to the government. According to some commentators in the Spanish press the burden of taxation on those who pay their taxes could be reduced considerably.
