Since August 14th we have been reading in the British press that the Spanish Inheritance Tax is going to be abolished, as announced by the Government.
The news were originally published, and are still published, in the English version of the Government of Spain web page, which can be found here. Please note that the information in English is not accurate.The Spanish version is the accurate one and can be found here
The posting in English is an unfortunate translation of the Spanish version and that was circulated as an official press release by the Government. I refer to our posting on the abolition of Wealth Tax that same day as the accurate translation of the Spanish version. You can find the posting by clicking here
We contacted The Times shortly after they published the news and we are also contacting the Spanish government suggesting the correction of their website to avoid any misrepresentation on this important topic.
