Inheritance and Gift Tax in Murcia: What You Need to Know

Murcia layers its Inheritance and Gift Tax on top of the national ISD rules, adding generous local reliefs that can shrink a headline bill to just a few euros—but only if heirs claim them in the right order.

First apply state reductions, then Murcia’s own bonuses, and finally the progressive rate and multiplying coefficients to reach the net figure. Mis-sequencing deductions means forfeiting refunds, so treat the checklist below as both a roadmap and a calculator.

Progressive tax scale

After reductions, the taxable base faces a state-wide sliding scale ranging from 7.65 % up to 34 %. Murcia then applies multiplying coefficients (1.0–2.4) depending on kinship group and pre-existing wealth of the heir. Close relatives in Groups I and II usually sit at the lowest end of both brackets.

99 % Murcia bonus for Groups I–II

Descendants, spouses, ascendants and adoptive parents enjoy a regional rebate of 99 % on the resulting quota. Example: a €12 000 calculated tax becomes €120. The bonus must be ticked explicitly on modelo 650; the software will not assume it by default.

Relationship reductions (state)

Before the bonus, subtract fixed kinship allowances: €15 956.87 for adult children, spouses and parents; €15 956.87 plus €3 990.72 per year for minors under 21; €7 993.46 for siblings, uncles and nephews. Distant relatives or friends receive no allowance.

Specific reliefs you can stack
