What is a tourist apartment? A tourist apartment refers to a property that is specifically designed for tourist rental use. It is about renting the entire apartments for short periods of time, normally less than 30 days. This is an excellent option for those seeking tourist accommodation for shorter periods.
What is a home for tourist use? A house for tourist use is a property that is used part of the year for tourist purposes, but is also can be used as a normal house during fixed periods agreed with the community. These properties are usually owned by a single owner and are managed by real estate agencies. This is an excellent option for those seeking tourist accommodation for longer periods.
Facilities: Tourist apartments include specific faculties such as an equipped kitchen, independent bedroom and bathroom. Homes for tourist use must offer basic comforts to spend the night and be able to be classified as self catering.
Do I have to rent my apartment?: Tourist apartments must be rented for short periods of time, generally less than 30 day agreements per rental.
Classification regarding license: For tourist apartments a special tourist accommodation license issued by the local government is required.
Use of property terms: A tourist apartment is used solely for tourist purposes rather than a fiscal residence to live in full time for extended periods for example longer than 3 months at a time.
Homes for tourist use can be used part of the calendar year for tourism purposes (Short term renting) and part of the year as normal housing. The main differences between tourist apartments and houses for tourist use are the requirement to rent for a fixed period in a calendar year and declare VAT quarterly so the need for an accountant is important.
Tourist flats have become a popular investment option in Spain. However, understanding the benefits and challenges involved is crucial.
The taxation associated with owning a tourist property varies depending on income declaration plus allow in a profit margin, Personal Income Tax (IRPF) on income earned and Yearly Property Tax (IBI). It is advisable to make an informed decision by speaking to a accountant / legal so you are aware of these tax obligations and complying with all the necessary formalities of ownership.
The stamp duty is just 1.2% however please note that VAT / IVA is applicable on the sale price at 10% to allow in your buying costs plus your own legal, land registry, notary fees.
