    Complex non-resident tax in Jávea: multi-owner rentals, back years, sales and wealth tax, handled personally by a named AEDAF adviser and reviewed under a registered Spanish lawyer.

    Why non-residents in Jávea bring us the complicated cases

    We say no when no is the answer

    If your case is one owner, one home, nothing rented, we will tell you so and point you to the online route our own firm runs. Advanced advice is for the cases that genuinely need a person sitting with your file.

    We know how Xàbia collects

    Nearly every town around here delegates its tax collection to SUMA. Xàbia does not; it runs its own office, Xàbia Tributa. If you own here and somewhere else on the coast, that one detail explains a surprising number of missed bills.

    Two offices flanking Jávea

    Moraira on one side, Dénia on the other, Xàbia in between. We are in town every week, with well over 100 completed purchases here over the years, and we sit down with clients at whichever office suits, or at the property itself.

    A named adviser, a named lawyer

    Your tax work is done personally by Daniel Bertomeu, Tax and Legal Advisor (AEDAF 06838, APAFCV 3080), and reviewed under Juan Antonio Bertomeu Vallés, abogado colegiado ejerciente, ICALI 4643. No anonymous team page.

    Who this page is for

    Most weeks it is some version of the same people. A British family letting a Tosalet villa that belongs to four siblings, each of whom should be filing their own return. A German owner on the Montgó slopes who has not filed since buying and wants it put right quietly. A Dutch couple selling near Portitxol and staring at the 3% retention. A Nordic executive asking whether wealth tax will follow them to the Arenal. That is this page. If you are one owner with one home and nothing rented, your situation is simpler and cheaper than this. Modelo 210 in Jávea for straightforward owners.

    What we handle for you

    01

    Rentals with several owners

    Each co-owner files their own Modelo 210 for their share of the rent, not one return for the property. We prepare the full set so the returns match each other, at 19% with deductible expenses for EU and EEA residents, 24% on the gross for everyone else.

    02

    Back years put right

    If you have owned for years and never filed, we regularise the open years voluntarily, before AEAT raises them itself. Coming forward first keeps the cost down and the letters away.

    03

    Selling your Jávea property

    We plan the seller side of the 3% retention, which the buyer pays to AEAT on Modelo 211, file your capital gains return, and claim back any excess withheld, alongside the plusvalía due to the town hall.

    04

    Wealth tax exposure

    We check your position against the Comunidad Valenciana rules, including the exempt minimum of 1,000,000 euros from 31 December 2025, and tell you plainly whether you have a problem or not. Often you do not.

    05

    Cross-border coordination

    We read your double-tax treaty position and coordinate with your adviser at home, so the same income is not taxed twice and nothing falls into the gap between the two countries.

    06

    Your local Xàbia Tributa taxes

    IBI, plusvalía and the new waste charge billed since August 2025 all come from Xàbia Tributa, not SUMA. We make sure the bills and direct debits actually reach you abroad, because a surcharge letter is a poor way to find out they did not.

    The rates behind your position

    These are the rules your plan is built on. The state and regional figures are firm; the two local Xàbia figures move with the town's ordenanzas, so we check the current number before we file anything.

    Rental income (non-resident owner)

    EU and EEA residents deduct proportionate expenses; everyone else pays on the gross

    AEAT, IRNR

    19% EU and EEA; 24% others

    Sale by a non-resident

    The buyer pays it to AEAT on Modelo 211 on account of your gain; any excess over your actual tax is reclaimable

    AEAT

    3% of the price withheld

    Wealth tax (Comunidad Valenciana)

    Non-residents are taxed on Spanish assets only

    Ley 5/2025, per Garrigues

    exempt minimum €1,000,000 from 31 Dec 2025

    Tax residency

    Crossing the line makes your worldwide income taxable in Spain

    Ley 35/2006

    >183 days or centre of interests

    IBI urbano (Xàbia)

    The council announced a cut for 2025, with 0.83% quoted but not yet read from the ordenanza; billed by Xàbia Tributa, not SUMA

    Ajuntament de Xàbia, orientativo

    0.85% (2023 figure); check the current rate

    Plusvalía municipal (Xàbia)

    Orientativo; we confirm the current ordenanza before relying on it; due on sales and inheritances, paid via Xàbia Tributa

    Ajuntament de Xàbia, orientativo

    up to the 30% maximum rate (2023 figure)

    Our Beckham Law standard application, for employees, digital nomads and highly qualified profiles, is €595 plus VAT; complex cases such as company directors or entrepreneurs run from €1,200 plus VAT. An initial consultation is €150 plus VAT, and complex cross-border tax plans are quoted on request after we understand your situation.

    Costly mistakes non-resident owners make in Jávea

    Setting up the direct debit with SUMA

    What goes wrong: SUMA does not collect for Xàbia, so the IBI and waste bills sit unpaid and surcharges quietly accrue.

    How we prevent it: We register your details and direct debit with Xàbia Tributa, the office that actually bills this town.

    Filing one return for a jointly owned rental

    What goes wrong: AEAT expects a Modelo 210 from each owner for their share; a single return leaves the others unfiled.

    How we prevent it: We prepare the full set of returns, one per owner, and make sure the shares match the deed.

    Letting the empty years slide

    What goes wrong: The non-resident tax runs even in the years the property just sits there, and the liability stacks up year after year.

    How we prevent it: We regularise the open years voluntarily, which costs far less than waiting for AEAT to ask.

    Selling without planning the 3% retention

    What goes wrong: The buyer withholds 3% of the full price, and money that could be reclaimed stays with AEAT.

    How we prevent it: We calculate your actual gain, file the seller-side return and claim back any excess withheld.

    The Xàbia quirk that catches owners out

    Nearly every municipality around here, Dénia, Teulada, Benissa, Calp, hands its tax collection to SUMA. Xàbia is one of the very few in the province that collects its own, through Xàbia Tributa. So the direct debit you carefully set up with SUMA for your other property does precisely nothing for your Jávea IBI. And since August 2025 there is a separate waste charge landing from the same office. If your bills still go to an old address, the first you hear of any of it is a surcharge.
