Automatic summary, not yet reviewed

  1. Law 27/2014 required almost all nonprofit entities to file the Corporate Income Tax return, regardless of their size or income. There used to be an exemption for the smallest ones, and the bill would bring it back.
  2. The bill would amend Article 124 of the Law so that these entities would not have to file a return if they meet three requirements: total income of up to €100,000 a year, non-exempt income subject to withholding of up to €2,000 a year, and all their non-exempt income subject to withholding.
  3. If passed, the rule would take effect the day after its publication in the Official State Gazette (Boletín Oficial del Estado).

Who it affects

  • Small parent-teacher associations, neighborhood associations, and sports, cultural, civic or social entities: They would no longer have to file the Corporate Income Tax return if they meet the income and withholding requirements.
  • Professional associations, unions of associations and professional colleges: They would also be exempt from filing if they meet the same requirements.
  • Nonprofit entities covered or not covered by Law 49/2002: The exemption applies to those not covered by Law 49/2002 and to other taxpayers under sections 2, 3 and 4 of Article 9 of the Corporate Income Tax Law.
