Spain Launches DIY Tax Tool for Foreign Homeowners

Enova Estates SL, a real estate company based in Manilva on Spain's Costa del Sol, has launched EasySpanishTax.com, an online platform allowing non-resident property owners to file their annual Modelo 210 tax declaration themselves. The service, created by founder and developer Björn Ingbrant, is aimed at cutting the cost and complexity foreign owners typically face when meeting Spain's non-resident tax obligations. It went live on June 22, 2026.

What the Platform Does

Modelo 210 is the tax form Spain requires from non-resident property owners, whether they use the property privately, rent it out, or keep it as a holiday home. The press release describes the filing process as one that has traditionally felt difficult and confusing for many foreign owners, often pushing them toward paid professional help. EasySpanishTax.com is designed to walk users through the declaration step by step online.

Owners create an account, enter the required property and ownership details, and manage their filings from a single secure dashboard. According to the company, the aim is to let owners handle the process without the delays or high professional fees associated with hiring outside accountants or tax agents each year.

"Many non-resident owners are fully capable of completing their Modelo 210 declaration themselves when the process is explained clearly. Our goal is to make Spanish property tax filing simple, transparent and affordable."

Beyond Tax Filing: A Document Hub

Alongside the filing tool, the company has added a property document storage feature for registered users. Clients can upload and keep title deeds, NIE certificates, passport copies, home insurance policies, utility contracts, IBI tax receipts, community documents and previous tax declarations in one account. Ingbrant frames this as turning the platform into a broader administrative tool rather than a single-purpose filing service, useful when documents are needed for a lawyer, bank, insurer or property sale.

The launch lands amid a wider shift in how Spain's non-resident tax rules are administered. Recent regulatory changes have altered filing windows and reporting requirements for Modelo 210, and non-resident rates continue to differ by residency status: tax rates are 19% for residents of the EU, EEA, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway and 24% for non-EU residents (including the United Kingdom since Brexit). That kind of technical variation is precisely the sort of detail that has historically driven overseas owners toward paid tax agents, and it underscores the market gap a self-filing platform is attempting to address.

EasySpanishTax.com is pitched at holiday home owners, second-home owners, retirees, investors and landlords who own property in Spain while living elsewhere. The press release names the UK, Ireland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands as countries with large numbers of Spanish property owners the service is designed to serve. The platform is owned by Enova Estates S.L., which is registered in Manilva, Malaga.

The launch adds a self-service option to a market long dominated by accountants and specialist tax agencies charging annual fees for a single-form declaration. Whether foreign owners embrace a DIY approach over professional filing will likely depend on how the platform handles edge cases such as joint ownership, rental income deductions and capital gains reporting, none of which were detailed in the announcement.
