Interesting thread. I owe a property in Spain and normally visit for 3-4 months each year. Last year I was in Spain for nearly 6 months and this year I intend to stay for 8-9 months. I pay tax in the UK and run a UK limited company. I pay my Spanish non-resident tax every year. My UK accountant has informed the UK tax office that I am a UK resident but non-domical. I work from Spain using the Internet.
I am not sure about this 183 day rule. What happens if I stay in Spain for longer than 183? Am I not allowed to live in my own spanish property for more that 183 days a year? These laws don't seem to make any sense, I thought we we all part of the EU and could travel freely between countries.
I am happy to pay my taxes in one country but can't see the point on switching when I move from country to county.
