Forms 036 and 037

Extraordinary procedure for filing Forms 036 037

Following the declaration of the state of alarm by RD 463/2020, this service has been developed to facilitate the submission of the pre-declaration of Model 036 or Model 037 (hereinafter, draft M036 or M037).

It may be used by those taxpayers who are not required to submit the census declaration electronically. The objective is to maintain the service to citizens, without them having to carry out the procedure in person, nor to reduce the guarantees required by the law.

Thus, the presentation of any of these models (036 or 037) without requiring the appearance at the office, will be admitted in the Electronic Registry of the Tax Agency, using the procedure of the Electronic Office "Models 036 and 037. Extraordinary procedure for submitting a form - not in person" that you will find in the blue "Procedures" box on the right margin.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Obtaining the validated Model 036/037 in PDF

2. Additional scanned documentation

3. Presentation of Form 036/037 in PDF and the additional documentation required in the Electronic Registry of the Tax Agency in the procedure " Extraordinary procedure for submitting Form 036/037 - not in person"

STEP 1.- Obtaining the validated Model 036/037 in PDF

To obtain the draft of Model 036 and Model 037, go to "Model 036. Completion, validation and obtaining in PDF for printing" or "Model 037. Completion, validation and obtaining in PDF for printing" depending on the model you must submit. Access to these models is found in the blue "Management" box on the right-hand side.

Access to form does not require identification with Cl@ve or electronic certificate.

The form is completed online and, after validation by the AEAT server, the PDF of the draft of Model 036/037 is obtained to print, sign and present at the AEAT .

In the form, the fields NIF and the name and surname or corporate name of the entity and the sections of the census declaration required according to the reason for submission must be filled out. We will refer to the pages of Model 036 as it can be used by all types of people and circumstances:
