One of the main objectives of the State Tax Administration Agency is to minimize the compliance costs that citizens must bear in their relations with the Public Treasury.
Faithful to this purpose, and in order to make it easier for taxpayers to comply with their tax obligations, the Tax Agency makes available to you the edition of the Practical Manual of Personal Income Tax (IRPF) for the year 2023, adapted to the language HTML that has been prepared by the Department of Tax Management.
The Manual responds to the intention of disseminating the Personal Income Tax through a rigorous, total and updated vision of the tax. To this end, it includes, in addition to the compilation of the administrative and judicial criteria applicable in the exercise, the explanation and didactic description of the content of Personal Income Tax by subjects, themes and concepts, relating each of them. with the standards that regulate them, in addition to diagrams and tables that facilitate the understanding of certain technical aspects of the same or summary of criteria as well as practical assumptions that are considered useful to clarify those issues that raise doubts or that imply greater complexity.

Given the volume that the diagrams and explanatory tables included in the Manual have been acquiring, some of which affect several chapters, and considering that these are useful and interesting for taxpayers, an annex has been added as a novelty of this campaign that It includes an index by chapter of all of them, to facilitate their search and location through their link to the part of the document where they are located.

On the other hand, its preparation in this digital format HTML seeks to achieve three basic objectives that have been repeatedly demanded by taxpayers.

The second, enable and make available to taxpayers simultaneously the contents of the Manual in other languages or co-official languages.
The third and final objective is to optimize the use of its content, that is, an effective exploitation of the content of the Manual that avoids the duplication of documents on the Tax Agency website on the same topics, reducing excess storage and need to be updating a plurality of comparatively coincident documents.
The advantages that the Manual provides in HTML and the need to avoid discrepancies between the contents of the paper versions (still photo at a specific moment) and in HTML of the Manual led to the Income Tax 2020 to make the decision to delete the practical Income Tax Manual in paper form and only maintain the version in HTML . A very significant weight in this decision was the new functionality that was incorporated in the HTML version of generating a file in PDF format of the content of the Manual, also allowing movement and navigation through it. This document PDF , both for its visual aesthetics (very similar to that of the Manual on paper) and for allowing it to be printed on paper if desired, covers the demand that customary taxpayers may raise to handle the print edition.
Furthermore, in response to the request of a significant number of taxpayers who use the application, the regional regulations of the Personal Income Tax of each Autonomous Community have been included along with the state regulations through links to the texts. consolidated statements of BOE .
