A local office you can visit

Heirs who are in Spain can come to the office to sign and ask questions face to face. Those abroad sign a power of attorney and we do the rest.

Inheritance tax in Andalusia

Non-residents can generally apply the same Andalusian allowances as residents. Even when no tax is due, the return must still be filed — late filing brings surcharges and interest.

Frequently asked questions — Inheritance in La Cala de Mijas

With a Spanish will and all heirs in agreement, usually 2–4 months. Foreign wills or heirs who need to obtain documents abroad can add a few months.
The heirs must first accept the inheritance before a notary and pay the taxes. In many cases we can coordinate the inheritance deed and the sale so that taxes and costs are paid from the proceeds.
No. Each heir can sign a power of attorney in their own country (with an apostille) and we sign the inheritance deed, file the taxes and deal with the banks and the Land Registry for them.
If there is a foreign will, it must be apostilled, translated and accompanied by proof of the foreign law — slower and more expensive, but we handle it. If there is no will at all, we obtain a declaration of heirs.
