Annual Summaries & Tax Returns (Modelo 390, Modelo 100 & Modelo 347)
At the close of each tax year, the Spanish Tax Agency (Agencia Tributaria / AEAT) consolidates all periodic filings submitted throughout the year. For the self-employed (Autónomos) in Spain, simply paying quarterly tax prepayments is not enough: through annual summary declarations and the personal income tax return, you formally close the financial year, reconcile discrepancies, and ensure that all records match seamlessly across the tax authority’s databases.
In collaboration with getrenn.com, we prepare your annual tax filings with absolute precision, reconcile input VAT and income metrics, and submit every declaration telematically ahead of official deadlines.
Core Annual Tax Declarations at a Glance
1. Modelo 390: Annual VAT Summary (Resumen Anual del IVA)
Modelo 390 is the comprehensive informational recapitulation of all four quarterly VAT returns (Modelo 303) filed during the calendar year:
- Function & Reconciliation: It provides exhaustive documentation of all taxable turnover, tax-exempt intra-Community supplies, export operations, and deductible input VAT.
- Exact Congruence: The aggregate totals in Modelo 390 must match the four quarterly filings down to the last cent. Any discrepancies trigger automated compliance audits (Requerimientos) by the Tax Agency.
- Statutory Deadline: Annual filing period runs through January 30th for the preceding calendar year.
2. Modelo 100: Personal Income Tax Return (Declaración de la Renta / IRPF)
Modelo 100 is the definitive annual personal income tax return for individuals who are tax residents in Spain:
- Determination of Total Income: Aggregation of all worldwide income—including net profits derived from self-employed professional/business activities (Autónomo), rental income, capital gains/investment returns, and foreign pensions.
- Final Settlement & Tax Credits: Quarterly prepayments already remitted throughout the year via Modelo 130, as well as client withholdings (Retenciones), are credited directly against your total tax liability.
- Tax Refund or Balance Due: If the calculation yields a credit balance in your favor, the Tax Agency refunds the amount directly to your bank account; if a balance is payable, the liability can be split into two interest-free installments.
- Statutory Deadline: Filed within the annual income tax campaign (Campaña de la Renta) from early April through June 30th of the following year.
3. Modelo 347: Informational Return for Transactions with Third Parties (Declaración Anual de Operaciones con Terceras Personas)
Modelo 347 is a purely informational cross-check return reporting significant commercial transaction volumes conducted with Spanish customers and suppliers:
- Reporting Threshold: All commercial relationships with an individual domestic client or supplier whose aggregate transaction volume exceeds €3,005.06 (including VAT) across the calendar year must be declared, broken down by calendar quarter.
- Cross-Matching by Tax Authorities: The Tax Agency automatically cross-checks filings submitted by both counterparties. Any discrepancies between reported figures immediately trigger automated tax inquiries for both entities.
- Statutory Deadline: Annual filing period runs through February 28th/29th for the preceding calendar year.
Deadlines and Statutory Due Dates at a Glance

Typical Compliance Risks and Tax Audit Focus Areas
- Discrepancies Between Quarterly Returns and Annual Summaries: Mathematical or category mismatches between the four Modelo 303 filings and the annual Modelo 390 summary trigger automated audit notices and administrative holds.
- Cross-Match Errors in Modelo 347: Inconsistent invoice allocations or incorrect quarterly categorizations that deviate from your customer’s or supplier’s declared records lead to severe penalties.
- Undeclared Foreign Income in the Renta: As a tax resident in Spain, you are taxed on your worldwide income. Foreign financial accounts, overseas dividends, or international rental proceeds must be fully and accurately declared on Modelo 100.
