Refund of VAT paid in other countries of the European Union: Procedure in Spain*
The procedure for the refund of the value added tax paid in other countries of the European Union was simplified on January 1st, 2010.Before, the entrepreneur had to submit his claim of refund of paid VAT in every EU country separately, which was sometimes difficult due to the different languages and formalities.
Now it is possible to claim this right directly through the Spanish Finance Administration.
The claim of refund can be made by all companies that would have gotten the refund if the VAT had been paid in Spain. In the motion of refund, at least 400 euros must be demanded when quarterly refund applies and 50 euros when the refund is made once per year.
The procedure is quite simple:
The new 360 P form has to be filled out and must be submitted to the Finance Administration before 30th September of the following year.
That is, to get a refund of the VAT paid in 2011, you have to submit the form before 30th September 2012.
Despite this simplification it is possible that the countries where the VAT was paid will send you a letter in their own language to ask you to fulfill a number of requirements to get the refund.
