What moves the price, and what to ask

Gestor for a self-employed person: €30 to €120 per month, before VAT

Online services start around €30 to €60. Face-to-face offices charge roughly €60 to €120. Specialist international work is higher. Income tax returns and registration are often extra.

  • What forms are included?
  • What is charged extra?
  • Will I get answers in English?

Autónomo monthly management, basic online: €24 to €60 per month

Covers quarterly VAT and income tax forms and an annual VAT summary. Standard face-to-face offices run €40 to €120/month, specialist services with tax planning or international clients €100 to €250+.

  • What forms and how many invoices does the fee cover?
  • Are emails, calls and documents handled in English, and by whom?

Annual personal income tax return: €30 to €150 per return

Simple returns sit at the low end. Non-residents who own property, or people with foreign income, typically pay more, often €100 to €200.

  • Is this quoted separately from the monthly management fee, or included?

Gestor to file a personal tax return: €80 to €200 per filing, before VAT

Simple Spanish resident returns sit at the low end and non-resident or multi-income returns at the high end. Some gestors include it in a monthly plan.

  • What income types does the price cover?
  • Is VAT included?

Company formation (Sociedad Limitada): €1,500 to €3,000 per company

Combined lawyer, notary and Mercantile Registry fees for a standard SL, excluding the minimum €3,000 share capital which remains company equity, not a cost. Remote signing from abroad adds translation and apostille costs, sometimes pushing the total cash outlay to around €6,500.

  • Is this a fixed quote or can it grow once the process starts?
  • Does the fee include the bank account and registered address, or just the paperwork?

Accounting and filings for a small SL (company): €100 to €250 per month, before VAT

Moguel gives an average of €150 to €250 a month (under €120 for very light companies, over €300 for complex ones), Billeo advertises its company plan from €160 plus VAT, and Cuentas Anuales puts traditional gestorías at about €100 to €200. These are marketing figures and they disagree at the edges, so compare what each quote covers.

  • How many invoices and bank movements a month does the price cover?
  • Are the annual accounts deposit and Modelo 200 included?
  • Is VAT added?

Deposit of annual accounts at the Registro Mercantil (SL): €100 to €600 per year, usually billed on top

Cuentas Anuales gives €100 to €250 and Moguel €200 to €600 including legalisation of the company books. Registry fees may be extra. Accounts for a calendar-year company are normally approved by 30 June.

  • Does the price include registry fees and book legalisation?

Corporate tax return (Modelo 200) for an SL: €150 to €350 per return, usually billed on top

Only one 2026 price guide (Cuentas Anuales) gives a figure. For a calendar-year company the filing window is in July, and late filing carries surcharges and penalties.

  • Is Modelo 200 included in the monthly fee?
  • Who files it, and by which date?

Beckham law: flat tax rate on Spanish employment income: 24% of income up to €600,000

The tax agency's manual (page updated 2 October 2026) gives 24% up to €600,000, and 47% on the excess from the same payer, for the year of arrival plus the next five tax years. Conditions apply, including no Spanish tax residence in the previous five years, a qualifying work route and a timely Modelo 149 election within six months of starting Social Security registration. Savings income is taxed at separate rates.

  • Do I qualify, and by which route?
  • Will you file Modelo 149 within the deadline, and what do you charge for it?
  • How does this interact with tax in my home country?

Guides with more detail

How we compiled these ranges

We read published price guides, clinic price lists, comparison sites and official fee schedules, cross-checked each figure against at least two sources wherever they exist, and show the range they agree on. Where only one source exists we say so on the line. The ranges come from 155 sources across the whole price checker, last fully checked 14 October 2026, with additions checked on 20 October 2026. We do not use paid placements, and no listed business influences the numbers. Treat every figure as a starting point for a conversation, never as an offer, and confirm the current price and what is included before you book. Nothing here is medical, legal, tax or financial advice. Spot a price that looks out of date? Email hello@barcelonaenglishpros.com.
