In 2007, Costa l Álvarez l Manglano initiated and are currently leading a legal action (without precedent) to reclaim from the Spanish Government part of the Capital Gains Tax paid by EU citizens on the sale of their property in Spain. Non residents were charged 35%; Spanish residents only 15% (Discrimination forbidden by EU Treaty).

Our firm has recently obtained a final judgement from a Spanish High Court obliging the Spanish Tax Authorities to refund overcharged Capital Gains Tax, accepting 100% of our legal arguments.

By obtaining this final judgement, Costa l Álvarez l Manglano sets a legal precedent for thousands of EU citizens to reclaim.

Act Quickly! If you sold a Spanish property between mid-2004 and 31st December 2006 and paid Capital Gains Tax (CGT) at 35 %, you can reclaim. Due to legal time limits, don’t take the risk of your case expiring.

Important: It is crucial to be defended by an International Tax Expert Lawyer to ensure success of this Capital Gains Tax reclaim in the courts.
