    • 1,500 euros per year, in the case that the taxpayer is considered a person with a disability.

      Please note that for these purposes, a person with a disability is considered to be the person referred to in article 3 of Law 5/2021, of October 20, on Transferred Taxes of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia.

  • This deduction is applicable only to the following taxpayers:

    1. Taxpayers who, on the date the tax accrues, have not reached 35 years of age .

    2. Taxpayers who, on the date the tax accrues, are over 65 years of age .

    3. Taxpayers who, on the date the tax is due, are considered victims of domestic violence, victims of terrorism or affected person .

    In the case of joint taxation, at least one of these requirements must be met by at least one of the spouses or, where applicable, the father or mother in the case of single-parent families.

    For the concept of single-parent family, see article 4 of Law 5/2021, of October 20, on Transferred Taxes of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia.

    Likewise, it should be noted that those referred to in articles 6 and 7 of the aforementioned Law 5/2021, of October 20, respectively, are considered victims of domestic violence, victims of terrorism and persons affected by such action.

  • That the sum of the general and savings tax bases, boxes [0435] and [0460 ] of declaration , does not exceed the following amounts:

    • - 25,000 euros in individual taxation.

    • - 30,000 euros in joint taxation.

  • That the taxpayer identifies the landlord of the home by stating his/her NIF in the corresponding self-assessment.

  • The deduction will be made by the holder or holders of the lease contract.

    In the case of marriage, regardless of the marital property regime, only the amounts paid by spouse who signed the lease contract will be deductible and, consequently , the amounts paid by the spouse who is not listed in the contract do not give the right to said deduction because he or she is not the tenant. See in this regard the Supreme Court Judgment No. 220/2009, of April 3 (Civil Division), handed down in cassation appeal No. 1200/2004 ( ROJ : STS 2464/2009)

  • When there is more than one taxpayer entitled to the application of the deductionEach of them will apply it based on the amounts they have paid, with their own maximum limits of 1,200 euros or of 1,500 euros per year, in the case where the taxpayer is considered a person with a disability, without its proration being applicable because it is not provided for in the regulations.

  • In the case of joint taxationThe deduction will be applied to the amounts paid by both taxpayers, provided that at least one of them meets the requirements, with a maximum limit of 1,200 euros per declaration, raising this limit to 1,500 euros per year when one of the spouses is considered a person with a disability.

  • The taxpayer can apply the regional deduction for rent and the deduction for investment in habitual residence in the same tax year, provided that both homes comply with the provisions of article 2 of Law 5/2021 to be considered as habitual residence.

    Examples:

    1. Taxpayer who has been renting since September 2017 in one home and acquires another in May 2025moving there on that date. If you meet the requirements of Article 2 of Law 5/2021, of October 20, that is, if the home has constituted or will constitute your residence for a continuous period of at least three years, you can deduct both in the tax period.

    2. Taxpayer who has been renting since September 2022 in one home and acquires another in May 2025moving on that date. The requirement of Article 2 of Law 5/2021 that it constitutes your residence for a continuous period of at least three years could only be met in the case of the acquired home, so it can only be deducted for the second one.
