Hi all, just wondering what the taxation is like in Spain. I have been offered a teaching position at 27500 euro. I have a family who won't accompany me for a while- it is a salary drop for me I just need to see how big or guesstimate- if anyone can help I would really appreciate it

I will be working there- have no assets anywhere hence the move!

It would depend on how many children you have living with you etc. But, 27,500€ gross per annum might give you about 1790€ net per month if they give you 12 payments a year (sometimes it's 14).

Thanks so much that is what I got when I worked it out. The school has told me that I can claim tax credits for my children and spouse even if they are not resident with me? My family will be in Tunisia and I will be supporting them- is this the case? I cannot find that stated anywhere and dont want to end up in a position where I cannot afford to support them- my husband is not working at present hence the move

You can only claim any tax allowances for dependents who are living with you.
