Between the beginning of 2004 and the end of 2006, UK citizens and non resident EU citizens paid 35% Capital Gains Tax (CGT), whilst Spanish nationals only paid 15%.

The European Commission has said that this 20% overpayment contravenes European Community Treaty discrimination rules and was therefore charged illegally by the Spanish Government.

As a direct result of this ruling, if you have been affected and can meet the requirements laid out below, you could be entitled to reclaim the 20% CGT overpayment you made in Spain, PLUS approximately 6% interest per annum. It is estimated that the average amount owed to British and other non-spanish citizens is between €10-30,000!
Time is of the essence,
as claims must be made within four years of a property being sold.

• To make a claim you must meet the following criteria:
  
  
  • You sold a Spanish property between the beginning of 2004 and the end of 2006
  .
  • You were not officially resident in Spain when you sold it.
  • You paid the Capital Gain Tax to the Spanish Authorities.
  • You sold your Spanish property as an individual; not as a company.
