The gain on the Estate after selling a Property will be taxed, as a general rule, in the country where the property is located. If you have already declared the totality of the gain in the UK and you have been therefore taxed, you won´t be taxed again in Spain, as that would be considered Double Taxation.

The Spanish Tax office will ask where the funds come from but won´t tax them twice.

I am glad this is the case, but I am confused, as other forums say that when you become resident it is for the whole year, so if you sell in jan, move in may so that you spend more than 183 days in Sspain you will be taxed on the sale of the uk house, even though you were uk resident when it was sold. Also if it was the primary residence you wouldn't be taxed in uk either?
