If you live in the Community of Madrid you will enjoy the following tax benefits

Madrid was the first Community to approve a reduction in personal income tax that benefits the lowest incomes.  

Since 2018,  the rate applicable to the first tranche of the regional scale (payable bases up to 12,450 euros), has been  9 percent  (compared to 9.5 percent established in the State scale).

In 2022,  a new reduction of 0.5 percentage points came into force in all sections of the regional scale. 

With this reform, the minimum rate is set at 8.5 percent for payable bases up to 12,450 euros. 

In the second tranche, up to 17,707.20 euros, the rate stands at 10.70 percent (compared to 12 percent set by the State). 

The reduction benefits all taxpayers who earn income from work, but mainly the lowest income,  since almost half of Madrid tax relief service have earned income of less than 17,707.20 euros and  almost a third of the total are less than 12,450 euros .

Since January 1, 2010,  Madrid taxpayers with three or more children or descendants  have been able to apply a minimum per descendant  10 percent higher  than that established in state regulations.

In addition,  since January 1, 2015 , its amount is  increased by all amounts as a minimum for descendants  and the maximum possible increase is maintained in the case of third or subsequent descendants.

Thus, for the third descendant, an amount of  4,400 euros can be applied  (compared to the 4,000 euros contemplated in state regulations), which rises to  4,950 euros  in the case of the fourth and successive descendants (compared to 4,500 state euros ).

Finally, in line with the deflation of the rate, the minimums due to personal and family circumstances are also updated at 4.1 percent.

Likewise, the previous requirement that the investor contribute their business or professional knowledge suitable for the development of the company in which they invest is deleted.
