Tax Benefits: Beckham Law

The Spanish Nomad Visa is well known for its tax savings. Under the Beckham Law, you pay a flat 24% tax on Spanish income for up to six years. Most foreign-sourced income stays exempt. This applies if you haven’t lived in Spain for the past 5 years. At an income of €80,000, the savings can reach €10,000 per year. We coordinate with tax specialists to activate this from day one.
