Hohe Steuerersparnis für europäische Unternehmen, die sich auf den Kanarischen Inseln gründen

John Goldacre, managing director von GoldAcre Estates, mit Firmensitz auf Fuerteventura, Kanarische Inseln, teilt mit, das europäische Unternehmen durch fehlende Information zur Steuergesetzgebung im Niedrigsteuergebiet Kanarische Inseln und deren Sonderstatus ZEC erhebliche Steuervorteile nicht nutzen.
Der Geltungsbereich dieser Steuervergünstigung für neugegründete Unternehmen erstreckt sich auf die Inseln GRAN CANARIA, TENERIFFA, LANZAROTE, FUERTEVENTURA, LA PALMA, EL HIERRO und LA GOMERA.

Unternehmen, die sich in diesem Bereich als ZEC Unternehmen gründen haben gegenüber Unternehnmen, die in anderen europäischen Bereichen agieren erhebliche Steuervorteile, die Ihre Wettbewerbsfähigkeit extrem erhöhen.

Um sich auf den Kanarischen Inseln als ZEC Unternehmen niederzulassen herrschen momentan extrem günstfge Bedingungen. Mieten von Gewerbeflächen, sowie Immobilienpreise sind derzeit sehr günstig. Als Standort ist die Lage der kanarschen Inseln sehr gut. Die Anbindung an das europäische Festland ist unproblematisch. Flüge existieren in jedes euriopäische Land zu guten Konditionen. Fähr-und Schiffahrtslinien bieten eine Verbindung mit den Handelsmetroplolen der Welt.


Was ist die Kanarische Sonderzone?
Die Kanarische Sonderzone (ZEC) ist ein Niedrigsteuergebiet, das innerhalb des Wirtschafts- und Steuersystems der Kanaren (REF) geschaffen wurde, mit dem Ziel, den wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Fortschritt des Archipels zu fördern und die Produktionsstrukturen zu erweitern.

Gesetzgebung der Kanarischen Sonderzone
Títel V des Gesetzes 19/1994 (geändert durch das Königliche Gesetzesdekret 12/2006)
Die Kanarische Sonderzone ist ein Niedrigsteuergebiet, das im Rahmen der Europäischen Union geschaffen wurde und in dem neben anderen Vorteilen ein reduzierter Körperschaftssteuersatz von 4 % gilt, gegenüber den 20 – 25 % im übrigen Staatsgebiet. Gesellschaften, die beschließen, sich in der ZEC anzusiedeln, genießen eine weitere Reihe von steuerlichen Vorteilen, zu denen ein niedrigerer Steuersatz bei der Einkommensteuer für Nichtansässige zählt, sowie die vollständige Befreiung von indirekten Steuern bei Geschäftsaktivitäten, die innerhalb des Anwendungsbereichs der Sonderzone ausgeübt werden. Da sich ZEC-Unternehmen auf spanischem Staatsgebiet befinden, gelten für sie die spanischen Doppelbesteuerungsabkommen sowie die Mutter-Tochter-Richtlinie der Europäischen Union.
Die Kanarische Sonderzone wurde im Januar 2000 von der Europäischen Kommission genehmigt und zwar durch das Gesetzesdekret 2/2000 vom 23.Juni, welches später durch das Königliche Gesetzesdekret 12/2006 vom 29. Dezember geändert und durch das Königliche Gesetzesdekret 1758/2007 vom 28. Dezember durchgeführt wurde (Verordnung über das Wirtschafts- und Steuersystem der Kanarischen Inseln).

Canary Islands ZEC Registration is Running Out

Canary Islands ZEC registration is running out. Tax benefits for European Companies wanting to be based in the Canary Islands Spain

John Goldacre Managing Director of GoldAcre Estates who have their head office based in Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands, Spain, stated that some European companies are potential loosing out on the ability to reduce their corporate tax payments by not taking up the opportunity to form Tax entities in the Canary Islands which consists of the 7 Islands of Fuerteventura, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro .

These places offer some serious advantages over operating companies from mainland Spain and other European countries and it is surprising that more tax advisors and accountants have not advised their clients of these unique opportunities

Office and Real Estate costs in the Canary Islands offer excellent prices for accommodating the offices and private homes and the links to mainland Europe are well served by major European Airlines with daily services to Madrid and other Spanish mainland airports, Many airports throughout Germany, all major and regional airports throughout the United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Sweden, Holland, Poland, Russia and many more
What is the Canary Islands Special Zone?

The Canary Islands Special Zone is a low tax zone created within the framework of the Canary Islands Economic and Fiscal Regime (REF) for the purpose of promoting the economic and social development of the Islands and diversifying their production structure.

The Spanish Government subsequently adapted the regulations concerning the ZEC contained in the Canary Islands Economic and Fiscal Regime, in accordance with the terms of the corresponding authorisations (Title V of Law 19/1994, as amended by Royal Decree-Law 12/2006 and implemented by Royal Decree-Law 1758/2007).
The benefits provided by the Canary Islands Special Zone will initially remain in force until 31 December 2019, and this time frame may be extended on the authorisation of the European Commission. The final date for authorisation to register in the Official ZEC Register (ROEZEC) will initially be 31 December 2013.
