What holds you back, solved

Managing from abroad is no longer a problem.

The four things that stop an owner who lives abroad, and how we solve them.

Your taxes and bills, in order

We coordinate Form 210 and your tax returns with a registered tax advisor. We also handle property tax (IBI), community fees, utilities, insurance and the licence. You don’t chase deadlines from another country.

Get paid wherever you are

A clear monthly statement and a transfer to your account, in Spain or any country in the SEPA area. Rent is collected in euros; if your account is in another currency, your bank handles the exchange.

In the owner dashboard you see bookings, income, cleanings and incidents, up to date. You don’t wait for a PDF at the end of the month to know how your apartment is doing.

Taxes, depending on where you live

What you pay in Spain depends on your country of residence.

If you don’t live in Spain, the rent from your apartment is taxed under non-resident income tax (IRNR) and declared on Form 210 (Modelo 210). The big difference is whether you live inside or outside the European Union.

EU, Iceland or Norway

19% on profit

You can deduct the apartment’s costs: property tax (IBI), community fees, repairs, insurance, utilities you pay, management fee and depreciation.

Rest of the world

24% on gross income

The law does not allow you to deduct costs: you pay on everything you collect. This is the case for the United Kingdom, the United States and Switzerland.

Illustrative example

An apartment earning €20,000 a year with €8,000 of deductible costs pays €2,280 if its owner lives in France (19% of €12,000) and €4,800 if they live in London (24% of €20,000).

Arts. 24.6 and 25.1 a) of the consolidated text of the Non-Resident Income Tax Law (Real Decreto Legislativo 5/2004).

From 2024 income onwards, a full year of rent can be declared in one go, from 1 to 20 January of the following year. Some rulings of the Audiencia Nacional (Spain’s National High Court) also recognise the right of non-EU residents to deduct costs: if that is your case, it is worth reviewing with the tax advisor.

“I inherited the apartment in Barcelona and I live in Paris. I was thinking of selling it because I couldn’t cope with managing it from a distance. With MyRentalHost I haven’t set foot in it for two years, and it earns more than ever.”

Frequently asked questions

What owners who live abroad ask us.

Do I need an NIE to rent out my apartment in Spain?

Yes. The NIE is your tax identification number in Spain and you need it to declare the rent. If you don’t have one yet, you can apply at the Spanish consulate in your country or through a representative with power of attorney. We guide you through the process.

How much tax do I pay if I live outside Spain?

You are taxed under non-resident income tax (IRNR) on Form 210. If you live in the EU, Iceland or Norway, you pay 19% on profit, after deducting costs. If you live in another country, 24% on gross income, with no deductible costs.

How often is Form 210 filed?

From 2024 income onwards, a full year of rent can be declared in one go, from 1 to 20 January of the following year (until the 15th if you pay by direct debit). We coordinate it with a registered tax advisor.

Can I be paid into an account outside Spain?

Yes, into any account in the SEPA area. Rent is collected in euros; if your account is in another currency, your bank handles the exchange.

Do I have to come to Spain to get started?

Usually not. Onboarding is done with digital signature and video call, and we prepare the apartment. Only if your case requires an in-person step do we go with you in Spain.

What is your fee?

For holiday rental management, between 18% and 20%, depending on the apartment. For seasonal rentals, the terms depend on the length of stay and we give them to you in the free analysis.

Does my apartment need a tourist licence?

For short stays, yes: an HUT number in Catalonia or a VUT number in Madrid. If you don’t have a licence, the seasonal rental, from 32 days and with a documented reason, is the legal alternative.
