    Examples

    1. Marriage formed by Mr. M.T and Ms. R.V, in which for 2021 each spouse acquired an electric bicycle for an amount of 1,600 euros.

      In accordance with Order 5/2020 of 8 June, the price of electric bicycles cannot be greater than €1,400, including VAT (maximum deductible amount).

      Therefore, in the joint tax return the amount of the applicable deduction will be 10% of the maximum deductible amounts. 100 This is 10% over (1,400 + 1,400) = 280 euros

      Note: The only restriction established is that in the same tax period each taxpayer can deduct only the amounts intended for the acquisition of a single vehicle. There are two taxpayers here and the purchase for each of two electric bikes, which is why 10% of the maximum deductible amount (1,400 euros) corresponds to each of the bicycles purchased.

    2. The same marriage as in the previous example: If Mr. M.T acquires an electric bicycle for an amount of 1,600 euros and Ms. R.V acquires a conventional bicycle for 700 euros.

      In accordance with Order 5/2020 of 8 June, the price of electric bicycles cannot be greater than €1400 , VAT included and that of conventional bicycles (non-electric) may not exceed €500, including VAT, or €700 in the case of family bicycles with a charge element for children's transport.

      Therefore, in the joint tax return the amount of the applicable deduction will be 10% of the maximum deductible amounts. 100 That is, 10% over (1,400 + 500) = 190 euros

    3. The same marriage as in the previous examples: If Mr. M.T acquires an electric bicycle for an amount of 1,200 euros and Ms. R.V acquires a conventional bicycle for an amount of 350 euros.

      As the amounts paid for the purchase of bicycles are lower than the maximum eligible price set by Order 5/2020 of 8 June (1,400 euros for electric bicycles and 500 euros for conventional bicycles), the amount paid will be taken.

      Therefore, in the joint declaration, a deduction of 10 per cent of the amounts paid for the purchase of each bicycle may be included. 100 That is, 10% x (1,200 + 350) = 155 euros

Deduction limit

  • The maximum amount of the deduction that is in accordance with the provisions of the previous sections will only be applicable to taxpayers whose sum of the General net tax base and the net tax base of the savings is less than 23,000 euros, in individual taxation, or less than 37,000 euros, in joint taxation.

  • When the sum of the general net tax base and the tax base of the taxpayer's savings is between 23,000 and 25,000 euros , in individual taxation, or between 37,000 and 40,000 euros, in joint taxation, the amounts and limits of the deduction will be as follows:

    1. In individual taxation, the result of multiplying the amount or maximum limit of the deduction by a percentage obtained from the application of the following formula:

      100 × (1-The coefficient resulting from dividing by 2,000 the difference between the sum of the general net tax base and the taxpayer's savings and 23,000)

    2. In joint taxation, the result of multiplying the amount or maximum limit of the deduction by a percentage obtained from the application of the following formula:
