The 2023/2024 income tax campaign in the Balearic Islands begins today, 3 April, and will run until 1 July 2024. This year presents an increase in terms of tax deductions applicable in the Personal Income Tax (IRPF) return, with a significant impact on savings for taxpayers. Specifically, 23 regional deductions are included, of which a total of eight have been improved or are newly created, representing an increase of 35%.

With more flexible income level criteria, approximately eight out of ten taxpayers are eligible to take advantage of these reliefs. A total saving of €36 million is projected, a growth of 85% compared to €19.5 million in the previous year.

What’s new in the Renta 2023/2024

Among the new features are the deduction for birth and adoption, which offer variable amounts depending on the number of children and with the possibility to advance payment retroactively from 1 January 2024. In addition, the deduction for renting a home has been extended for different demographic groups, such as those over 65 years of age who are not in employment, and the deduction for higher education studies outside the island has been increased, eliminating the requirement that there be no educational offer in Mallorca. These measures are in addition to improvements in deductions for the purchase of textbooks, for fostering children under 6 years of age for reasons of conciliation, and for extracurricular learning of foreign languages, among others.

Renta Ágil campaign

This year, the Balearic Islands Tax Agency (ATIB) is once again making the Renta Ágil service available to citizens to help them file their personal income tax return. This service is complementary to the one offered in its offices by the State Tax Administration Agency (AEAT).

Taxpayers will be able to make an appointment from 28 May to 28 June, and then file their return in person between 3 June and 1 July.
