Tax information from CCG

The filing period for IRPF (Personal Income Tax Returns) began on May 4th and ends on June 30th. This tax needs to be filed by residents in Spain who are either Autonomo (self-employed) or other individuals with earnings in 2008. A person is deemed to be a Spanish tax resident if they reside in Spain for more than 183 days per annum. Make sure you don´t miss the deadline!

If you need help CCG can prepare your returns for you. Just click on the following link and following the on-screen instructions: http://www.ccgspain.com/spanishtaxquestionnairees.html. Once you have filled in the form, click SUBMIT and someone will contact you.

Essential Magazine is 10 years old!

As many publications fall by the wayside, Essential Magazine goes from strength to strength and has just published their bumper 10th Anniversary issue. This offers us a nostalgic look back over the last ten years of Essential as well as including more interesting articles than ever. I particulary enjoyed the article about Zara, the internet article about Black Hat techniques and travel feature on Segovia. It's well worth a read, so if you weren't able to pick up a copy you can download it online from http://www.essentialmagazine.com/ Happy Birthday Essential!
