Spanish Inheritance Tax: How much is it?
Hi, I live in the United States and attained Spanish Citizenship by applying under the rights that my father was born in Spain.
I own properties and have other business related wealth; all in the United States. My question is do I have to have a will in Spain? Would I owe inheritance tax in Spain? Would my trust and pour over will in the USA suffice to assign all my worldly goods to my wife?, I am married to her in the State of Massachusetts where Gay marriages are legal. Thank you so much in advance for you advice and guidance.
Spanish Inheritance Tax: How much is it?
Hi there, my father passed away in October 2011, I would be grateful if you could advise me whether my Mother has to personally go to Spain to deal with my late fathers 50% of their property in Torrevieja. She has been told that she has only 6 months after his death to deal with the IHT and to transfer the property to sole ownership if she fails to do this the property cannot be sold for 7 years. Also how much tax is she required to pay if the property is valued at 70,000 euros. Kind regards. Sharon.

Hi, I have been living in Spain for the last 12 year, and I used to look after an old man for 10 year. He died 3 weeks ago. And in his Spanish will he has left me 140,000 euros. I'm told I have to pay 40,000 IHT. Would that be about right. And is it true I have to find this 40,000 before I can receive my inheritance. And how long would I have to wait.
Kind Regards. Dawn.

Can you help, my sister died 12mioths ago in Las palmas, without a will, she was residnt for 15 tears, her only daughter inherits 50% and her father 50%.
he has now died and left 8.5 % of his share to a cousin.
The daughter wishes to sell the two properties , can the cousin stop the daughter from selling if she does not want to.
Accepting that she will recieve the appropiate value against the proprtion left.

Hello. My mother passed away in January. My father is still alive and living in Spain. We have had to pay 6,500 euros for the IHT as myself and my two brothers are not Spanish residents. We have been told that we could either receive the inheritance money or just let it roll over for my father. I don't know what to do.

Dear Sirs
My parentes have both died within two months and left my sister, brother and I an erstatte/house in Torremolinos. We are all danish residents. We are the only heirs/beneficernes and theres is no testament. The value of the house is apx. 250.000 € and theres no depth in the house or any other complcations.
We have contacted a lawer in Spain and asked for the lawers fee. The price is 3.500 € including 12-15 workhours plus 6 - 8 secretary hours incl. tax. Then there"s an additional Price of 3.000. € for all occicial fees and paynents.
As we have never had to hire a lawer abord before - we have no idea if this fee i reasonable or not?
I know it's difficoult, but can you PLEASE give us an estimate of the general lawers fee for this inherrentenc / exchange of erstatte ?
We are really not sure of the Price we have been given!?
Think you very much
Sincerament Louise
