But sendi...

How does it work receiving rental income or paying repairs etc. if not having a UK bank account. Can Tenants just transfer to Spanish bank? Presumably they can Katy but then there'll be charges involved I imagine. Best to use something like Wise and have the money paid into there. That's one of the...

Yes it is harder do online . Its not just a case of going on a standard webpage and filling it in. We have family who come out every summer and they just take the form back with them and they post it from the uk. . wicksey you say you do self assessment for pension and intrest?

You need to fill in a self assessment every year as your rental income is taxable in the UK.you get your uk allowance and if any tax is due you can offset what you pay in spain so you wont pay double.

I think one of the posters did it on here a while back. You would have to fill in paperwork ...

Its a rule that has been in place for many years for third country nationals,whic...
