Amount

  • 50 Euros for each child born or adopted in the tax period in which the birth or adoption occurs.

    The deduction can be applied even if the child born or adopted does not live with the taxpayer on the date of accrual of the tax (for example, in the case of separation or divorce of parents).

    The deduction is applied by the simple and simple fact of the birth or adoption of children in the year, so the subsequent death of the child in the tax period does not prevent the application of the deduction.

  • In the case of multiple births or adoptions, the amount of the deduction will be increased by 50 euros for each child. This increase of 50 euros is applied even if one of the children died in the year.

Requirements 

  • The sum of the general tax bases and the taxpayer's savings does not exceed 19,000 euros in individual taxation and 24,000 euros in joint taxation.
