You’re absolutely right: even though the tip about Wills appears in the post list on the left as 1521, in this case we linked to the wrong one on Digital Nomad Visas! 

Please, have below the right link!

If you own a property in Spain, having a Spanish will can save your loved ones a lot of time, money and stress later on.

In today´s post I explain the 5 main problems you avoid when you make a Spanish will: long procedures, extra bureaucracy, confusion about which law applies, higher inheritance tax and delays with banks and the Land Registry.

You can read the full article here: [How to protect your loved ones and your Spanish assets with a clear, tax-efficient will]

Happy to answer questions if anyone is unsure whether their existing will works in Spain.

Anne:

Answers by barristers: 

What happens to interest if the debtor deposits the money with the court?

If the debtor deposits (consigns) the full amount, in a clear (liquid), unconditional way and at your immediate disposal, procedural interest stops accruing from that very day.
If the deposit is partial or defective, interest keeps running on the unpaid balance.

Legal basis: Art. 576 LEC (interest from judgment until payment) and Arts. 1176 et seq. CC (valid consignation has a releasing effect when the funds are at the creditor’s disposal).

---

When and how are the interests calculated?

Once the judgment is final and the principal is paid, the court calculates the Art. 576 LEC interest in a separate incidental proceeding, after hearing both parties. It’s a specific step to close the numbers in an orderly way.

---

Can you get paid before the judgment is final?

Yes—through provisional enforcement. The court can:

• Ask the enforcing party to post a bond (Art. 528 LEC) to cover repayment and damages if the judgment is later reversed.

• Delay payment or condition it on guarantees when there’s a risk the money can’t be recovered later. In practice, courts are especially cautious if the beneficiary is non-resident / non-EU, because restitution can be harder.
