Auxadi Spain
Spain is one of the world’s great economic powers. With its impressive and expansive history, close links to Latin America, and relatively low labour costs, Spain has the enviable position of being a stepping-stone to Latin America and (in the other direction) an excellent first base for European operations.
According to the World Investment Report, Spain is the fifth largest economy in the European Union and the sixth largest receiver of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) globally. The attraction for foreign investors lies not only in its dynamic internal market, but also in the possibility of operating in third markets from within. It has a privileged geostrategic position within the EU, allowing access to a market of +1.9 billion potential clients in EMEA.
Spain’s FDI attractiveness also comes from its restructured financial sector, continually strong tourist market, its highly efficient transport network, its active development of renewable energies, and its cultural proximity to Latin America. The countries’ main economic areas are manufacturing, energy, construction and transport and storage.
Tax Treaties are in place with around 100 major countries, including USA, UK, the EU, China, Japan, and most of LATAM and Central America. This extensive network of agreements facilitates the repatriation of profits and gives Spain the privileged status as a holding centre for investments abroad, particularly for LATAM and the USA.

Our services in Spain
Tax Specialists
Spain is a founder member of the OECD and has many double taxation agreements in place. The general tax rate for Spanish Corporation Tax is 25% with a minimum rate of 15% for newly created companies.
Changing tax regimes are often more challenging than any other component of international business, and in Spain the double taxation conventions in place take precedence over the domestic law – making compliance even more important.
We’re experts in international taxation and can help you to comply with the various tax requirements in Spain. Let our expert tax team in Spain take care of intricate local taxation rules, using our purpose-built automation technology, so you and your operations remain tax compliant.
- Tax compliance – covering multinational, federal, state, and municipal taxes
- Official Books and Annual Accounts
- Assistance with tax inspections and audits
- Tax reviews and claims
Accounting Specialists
The Spanish Accounting Regulations (SPGAAP) are similar in many aspects to IFRS and are diligent about complying with accounting obligations. Non-compliance could result in liability such as administrative offences, tax violations, tax offences and/or criminal offences. Keeping on top of the specific Spanish accounting regimes and integrating multicountry and multicurrency accounting can be a cumbersome, time-consuming, and often manual process (making it prone to error).
We help global corporations and fund managers with all their corporate accounting requirements. Using our bespoke and best-in-class technology platform, MySPV, you can have full and real time access and control of your accounting data, across multiple countries and multiple currencies.
Our accounting experts in Spain can help manage:
- Accounting and bookkeeping
- Management accounting
- Statutory accounting
- Official Books and Annual Accounts
- Cash management (including payments)
- Reporting
- Consolidation of finanical statements
- Bank account tracking
- Treasury and cash flow forecasts
- Audit assistance
Payroll Specialists
The Spanish labour market is highly regulated with many different contract categories to consider. It’s the responsibility of your company to establish the opening of contribution accounts, hiring, terminations, and any other pertinent variables regarding your workers. Companies must also submit contributions to the appropriate authorities within established deadlines.
Payroll requirements can be a minefield of regional tax codes, employment laws, benefits, bonuses and social security requirements dictated at multiple levels.
Our experienced and knowledgeable team of payroll specialists in Spain will use our unique payroll technology platform to manage your payroll function. You’ll have permissions control for reviews and approvals, automated processes, and coherent, homogenised data that can be easily consolidated across your global business.
