What are the tax advantages of marriage

Getting married can be one of the most emblematic and most memorable moments of our life. Around this there are a series of tax advantages, which in some occasions, can influence the decision to marry. In the case that you are considering getting married, we inform you about the tax benefits of marriage that must be taken into account.

Steps to follow:

one

In the declaration of Personal Income Tax (IRPF), you can choose to make a joint or individual declaration after the marriage. If either of the two spouses does not receive income, it is convenient to do it jointly since you will obtain a deduction from the contribution base of € 3, 400.

In the Inheritance Tax, the advantages vary according to the autonomous community, so it is convenient to go to our office of the Treasury to inform us in detail. In any case, married people usually enjoy some advantages in the payment of this tax.

They also have advantages in the taxes derived from the purchase and sale of a home, because if they decide to sell their house during the first three years after the marriage, they will not have to return the deductions previously applied.

Regarding the deductions applied for having children, de facto couples and marriages are fairly equated here. These are € 1, 836 for the first child, € 2, 040 for the second child, € 3, 672 for the third child and € 4, 182 for the fourth child and the following children.

On the other hand, in the case that we are receiving a widow's pension, it will disappear if we remarry, except for a few exceptions:

  • The survivor is over 61 years of age.
  • This pension represents 75% of the annual income.
