Do you own a property in Murcia which you rent out? Do you have your correct licence in place? Do you want to obtain a tourist licence in Murcia?
You are in the right place and you should do it now. There was a time when you could rent your Spanish property and never have to worry about any repercussions.
That ship has sailed and in 2020 having your property rental licence, (tourism licence), being legal/insured and paying the correct amount of tax is high on our clients list of important tasks.
Why do I need a Tourism Licence?
We want you to avoid a fine if you are thinking of renting your property (oralready are renting) and we can help.
The process in Murcia region right now is quick. There are bottlenecks all over the country trying to process applications (not here!) so our advice isto get the process started immediately.
We can’t say how long it will take for the process in Murcia too to become long and painfully slow. The process changed overnight in Alicante recently as an example.
Here in Spanish solutions, especially since opening our new office on the Murcia / Alicante border town of Pilar De La Horadada, we are receiving anumber of enquiries about registering a property in the Murcia Com-munity.
Why use Spanish Solutions services?
We wish to provide our clients with some information about obtain a Tourist Licence.
Some of these clients used Spanish Solutions for conveyancing, some did not as they didn’t know we existed. It is not too late to become a client however and we will help you regardless.
As Tourism Licences are a complex matter, we are setting the informationout as clearly as possible.
Please send any documents and requests to Ana to proceed.

Please remember we can of course do this for you too.
The process is that when you start renting out your apartment in Spain you must report the guests’ personal data to the Police.
You or your representatives need to go to the nearest Police station “Guardia Civil”. Here you can get access to the relevant website. You will be assigned a username and password to access online where you will fill the information.
Rental Tax in Murcia – Spain
When you rent out your property being non resident in Spain you have to pay a rental tax every quarter, in January, April, July and October. If you only rent out the property short term you will have to submit the form in the corresponding quarter.
To calculate the tax it is needed the following information:
- Copy NIE of any of the owners
- A copy of the rental contract (in the case it is long term rental)
- Rental dates
- Money receivedProperty expenses:
- Council tax(copy of the bill)
- Community fee
- House insurance.
Our fees per person and for a couple are as follows:
ONE QUARTER: €100 (VAT included)
FULL YEAR: €300 (VAT included)
In case you pay for the whole year, this fee includes the non resident tax fee for the following year.
If you pay rental tax in 2019, next year 2020 when we calculate your non resident tax we will deduct the days you have rented out and calculate the non resident tax for the rest of the days.
This is all quite confusing but we can help you through the process.
We know there are people offering cheaper services. These people are not qualified to do so. We know how long the process takes, what is involved in doing it correctly and what do our clients really need.
You can of course compare our service to that of others- We encourage our clients to so. Just to reiterate- this is not easy, and you need to do it correctly. You wouldn’t go to Dentist who knows quite a bit about teeth, you ́’ll go to the guy or gal who knows it all. Think the same way with yourrental property in Spain!!
Please note this information is current at the time of posting.
