The same obligation with other tax authorities

What is declared here with form 303 goes on a different form, with different deadlines, at other tax authorities. Which one applies to you depends on where you are taxed, not on where you live.

Who has to file form 303?

According to the Agencia Tributaria (AEAT, the Spanish Tax Agency): “Empresarios y profesionales que realizan operaciones sujetas a IVA (incluido el régimen simplificado). Periodo trimestral por defecto; mensual para quienes indica el art. 71.3 RIVA. Hay que presentarlo aunque no haya cuotas devengadas ni soportadas.”

What happens if I file form 303 late?

If you file it before the tax authority has asked you to and there is an amount to pay, there is a surcharge of 1% plus another 1% for each full month of delay, and of 15% plus interest after twelve months (art. 27 of the Ley General Tributaria, the General Tax Act). If there is nothing to pay, the general penalty is €200, which drops to €100 if you file without having been asked; for information returns it goes by the item of data (art. 198). The details are in the guide to missed deadlines.

Does Mis Obligaciones file form 303 for me?

No. Mis Obligaciones suggests it in your calendar with the reason, takes you to its official page and reminds you a week before and the day before. The filing is done by you, or your gestoría (tax adviser’s office), on the website of the Agencia Tributaria (AEAT, the Spanish Tax Agency).
