Important: Modelo 720 has historically carried very severe penalties for non-compliance. While penalties were reduced following a 2022 EU court ruling, the obligation to file still applies — and late or incorrect filing can result in significant fines.

What is it

What is Modelo 720
and who must file it?

Modelo 720 is Spain’s informative declaration of foreign assets. It requires Spanish tax residents to report assets held abroad — including bank accounts, investments, real estate and life insurance — when they exceed certain thresholds.

It is an informative declaration — it does not generate a direct tax payment. However, failure to file, or filing incorrectly, can have serious consequences. The details matter, and getting them right requires professional guidance.

What types of assets must be declared?

Bank accounts and deposits held in foreign financial institutions

Securities, shares, investment funds and bonds held abroad

Real estate and property located outside Spain

Life insurance and annuities contracted with foreign entities

Each category has its own threshold and rules. Your specialist will assess whether your specific assets trigger a filing obligation.


Who must file

Do I need to file
Modelo 720 in Spain?

The obligation applies if all of the following are true. Not sure? We’ll assess your situation for free.

You are a Spanish tax resident — you spent more than 183 days in Spain during the tax year or your main economic interests are in Spain.

You hold assets abroad — bank accounts, investments, property or life insurance held outside Spain.

The value exceeds €50,000 — the general threshold per category is €50,000 in combined value. Each category is assessed separately.

You have not previously declared these assets — or the value has increased by more than €20,000 since your last declaration.
