The IberianTax Origin Story: Built for Non-Resident Owners, by Experts

IberianTax was founded in 2020 by Antonio Ibarra Vich, a tax lawyer from Mallorca, and Juan Manuel Sivianes, a senior software developer - two professionals and good friends who shared a vision to modernise Spain’s non-resident tax landscape.

They noticed that non-resident property owners faced outdated, confusing, and inaccessible systems. Many struggled with compliance simply because the process wasn’t built for them.

Their solution?

A digital platform to make Spanish non-resident tax filing simple, transparent, and fair.

Simplifying Non-Resident Property Taxes

From the start, IberianTax aimed to empower property owners worldwide to manage their Spanish taxes quickly, securely, and in their preferred language.

Unlike government portals, the platform was designed around the user experience - modern, easy-to-use, and fast. IberianTax users can file their Modelo 210 tax return in under five minutes from any device, with multilingual support in English, Spanish, German, and French.

IberianTax combines smart technology with expert human support to deliver confidence and clarity at every step.

2025: A Year of Further Growth and Smart New Tools

Guided by user feedback and ever-changing tax regulations, IberianTax continues to evolve with forward-thinking digital services, which now include:

• Online NRA Registration: Since July 2025, all short-term rentals in Spain require a Rental Registration Number (NRA) to remain listed on platforms like Airbnb or Booking. IberianTax now enables owners to obtain their NRA 100% online - fast, secure, and fully compliant.

• Digital Certificate (Certificado Digital): Non-resident owners can now acquire their official electronic ID through IberianTax, allowing them to manage all tax and legal processes online with ease and autonomy.

• Automatic Filing Tool: This innovative IberianTax tool lets registered users automatically file their Modelo 210 each year - just one click to stay compliant.

Each feature reflects IberianTax’s core values: simplicity, accessibility, and constant improvement.

Leading the Future of Spanish Tax Compliance

Every year, IberianTax expands its reach and capabilities, reinforcing its role as a trusted digital partner for non-resident property owners in Spain.

Recognition from Spain Up Nation, Foro ADR, and ENISA strengthens IberianTax’s position as a national leader in fintech innovation, merging legal expertise with cutting-edge technology to make tax filing effortless.

“IberianTax was built on a simple belief: no one should feel overwhelmed or alone when dealing with their taxes in Spain. If we can turn something stressful into clarity and confidence, with the right mix of expertise, technology, and empathy, then we’re fulfilling our purpose.” says CEO Antonio Ibarra Vich.

With every milestone, IberianTax remains true to its founding vision: Making non-resident property taxes simple.
