If it was me then I would have said.  My wife is an EU resident and I have dual British and Irish nationality so we could not care less what Brexit brings as it will not affect us.

However, if someone can give a helpful answer,  I and the friend for whom I asked the question, would very much appreciate it.

Jim, the whole basis of your reply is false.

In Spain the laws governing inheritance taxation impose the tax liability on the  inheritor/s not on the estate.

I should be grateful for informed comments by those who understand Spanish taxation law.


Thanks

Thanks Rocky for the factual reply

I would like to also know if non Eu person pass away ,and leave home behind how is the spanish law works?
Do they sell the house to get the tax. or ask family to pay tax then distrebuted according to Spanish Law? Or his will ,will take effect first?
Thanks,
Mostafa

Something has happened to the replies to the Johncar posts. I can't see them.

Unfortunately, in Spain you need to pay 'el impuesto de sucesion '(inheritance tax)first.And if u are not a resident you end up paying much more too as you won't be eligible for the 'bonificacion' (subsidy).In some regions the subsidy can be up to 99%.

In Spain the inheritance tax is imposed on the inheritor not, as in say UK, on the Estate. 

That means the inheritor must pay the tax due, I believe within 3, might be 6, months of the death.  One cannot inherit until the tax is paid-

If that tax is not paid then action will be taken by the tax authority to sell the property and take the tax from that.

It is becoming more frequent, for Spanish inheritors to give up their inheritance as they are unable to raise the funds to pay the tax
