90 days

Not in the immediate future. I'm sure you have heard media reports about France and if the legislation passes all stages it may become law around Springtime. Even if Spain does go down the same road as France if you stay longer than 183 days you automatically become a tax resident.

Hi there 

Thank you very much for your reply

I did hear about France and I am hopeful

Oh  not paying tax in Spain over past 20 yrs I've paid them enough tax 

Thank you so much for the links 

You're very welcome, just keep your 'ear to the ground' you never know what will happen. Good luck!

Thanks honey 

I'm reluctant to re buy whilst this limited stay is in force not that I could live again permanently in Spain however, nice to be able to spend the winter there and again as and when you need to escape the UK 

I'm afraid 'nice' disappeared with Brexit and won't be returning any time soon.

That's down to all the idiots in UK voting leave then they realise when it's too late and complain because they don't have the freedom of travel 

Had it not been for my son's and grandchildren I would never have left Spain however, I did and sold but that's not saying I won't return because I'm sure I will this year or next latest 

I absolutely love Spain 

You absolutely love Spain but not enough to move and pay your taxes here though?

I paid taxes there for 20 yrs and now I'm a pensioner so no don't want to pay taxes only those related to purchase etc

So given state pension I couldn't live there permanently but will buy a property if the limited days disappear 

You would still have to pay non-resident's tax annually if you own a property in Spain.  As far as the 90-day rule is concerned, I wouldn't hold my breath.  Even with this rule you can still spend half a year in Spain, just in 2 separate periods.  I don't see any likelihood of Spain making a different rule for the British  - this would be discrimination against other 3rd country nationals.  There are plenty of EU and Schengen nationals buying property in Spain these days.  They more than compensate for any British people who have left Spain.
