The ladder runs 19%, then 24%, then 30%, then 37%, then 45%, then 47%.
Only 50% of a positive rental profit is taxable, so the top rate comes to 23.5% of the whole profit.
Capital gainswhen you sell
Added to your other income
There is no separate rate: the gain is stacked on your other income in Trinidad & Tobago and taxed in the bands it reaches.
Freeholt does not model a general income ladder for Trinidad & Tobago, so the bands it joins are not shown here.
The gain is free of tax altogether once the property has been held 1 years.
30%top rate on its own scale
The gain is taxed on a scale of its own in Spain, apart from other income, from 19% to 30%.
A non resident pays a flat 19%.
3% of the sale price is held back at settlement from a non resident seller. It counts against the bill rather than adding to it.

ITP on a resale is set by the autonomous community and priced per community once one is chosen, with Catalonia on its own progressive ladder: from 4% in the Basque Country to 13% at the top of the Catalan scale. Until a community is chosen an 8% national average is used. A new build is outside ITP and pays 10% IVA (VAT) plus about 1.5% AJD (stamp duty) instead. IBI is about 0.4 to 1.1% of the valor catastral; entering the cadastral value gives an exact figure (≈50% of market is assumed otherwise). A proposed 100% surcharge on non EU buyers is not law and not computed.
