Taxes
Madrid and Andalusiaare the regions with the most competitive tax systems.
Juanma Moreno, the Andalusia Junta’s president, has never denied in his assertion that “the Community of Madrid” is the “mirror” to which he looks as he pushes tax cuts. Thanks to a tax policy, Andalusia has the second lowest tax burden in Spain, inferior to Madrid. This is the first time that Andalusia has ranked so high in the IACF (American Tax Foundation), which has conducted this classification annually since 2017, taking into account income tax, wealth tax, inheritance tax and transfer tax are taken into account assets (ITP) and documented legal acts (AJD), as well as taxes specific to each region.
