November 2025

Once again, the time has come to reflect on the alternatives offered by current legislation to improve personal income tax (IRPF) for the 2025 financial year.

We would like to emphasize the significance of the rules governing the integration and offsetting of income. These rules could enable us to make the most of any losses incurred during the year, whether they have been realized or not, as well as any carried forward from previous years. 

In addition, income tax regulations offer other ways to optimize this tax, such as contributions to pension plans and other social security systems, early repayment of mortgage loans to maximize the deduction for investment in the primary residence (only for those who purchased their primary residence before January 1, 2013), making donations to certain non-profit organizations, carrying out improvements to increase the energy efficiency of homes, or purchasing plug-in electric vehicles.

On the other hand, with a view to tax optimization for the coming fiscal year, it is important to consider how an appropriate investment strategy focused on accumulation products, such as a fund portfolio, could contribute to improving income tax and wealth tax liability, although in any case, specific personal and financial circumstances would need to be analyzed.

Finally, we would also like to point out that, although there have been few changes to state tax regulations in recent months, we have encountered some significant tax changes in relation to taxes transferred to certain autonomous communities, as described in this newsletter.
