In relation to the procedure for converting deferred tax assets into a claim against the Tax Authority, the taxpayer must complete the table "Conversion of deferred tax assets into a claim against the Tax Authority (art. 130, DA 13 and DT 33 LIS )" on page 20 ter of form 200, as detailed below:

1. Deferred tax assets (DTA). DT 33 and DA 13 LIS

In the -third transitional provision of the LIS a transitional regime is established for the conversion of deferred tax assets generated in tax periods beginning before January 1, 2016 into a claimable credit against the Tax Authority.

This provision establishes a different treatment for the exercise of the right of conversion into a credit payable before the tax authorities regulated in article 130 of the LIS for these assets, according to their generation period:

• Deferred tax assets generated before January 1, 2008

Section 1 of the thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS establishes that these assets will have the right to conversion into a demandable credit before the tax authority regardless of the amount of the positive net quota of the tax period in which they were generated.

Deferred tax assets generated in the periods between 2008 and 2015

In section 2 of the thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS it is established that in the event that the difference between the amount of the deferred tax assets referred to in section 1 of said provision and the aggregate sum of the positive net quotas of this Tax, corresponding to the tax periods elapsed between the years 2008 and 2015 is positive , the application of the provisions of article 130 of the LIS will require that the entity satisfy, with respect to said difference, the patrimonial benefit for conversion of deferred tax assets into a payable credit against the Tax Authority. This benefit must be paid in all tax periods in which the aforementioned deferred tax assets are recorded.

The patrimonial benefit is regulated in the Thirteenth Additional Provision of the LIS, which establishes that the amount of the benefit will be the result of applying 1.5 percent to the total amount of said assets existing on the last day of the tax period corresponding to the Corporate Tax of the entity.

This benefit will be accrued on the day the voluntary declaration period for this Tax begins, its payment period coinciding with that established for the self-assessment and payment of this Tax.

The payment of the patrimonial benefit will be made by submitting the form 221 of self-assessment of the patrimonial benefit for conversion of deferred tax assets into a claimable credit against the Tax Authority, approved by Order HFP /550/2017, of June 15.

Finally, in relation to taxpayers who apply the provisions of this thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS, section 6 of said thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS establishes for these taxpayers the obligation to provide the following information:

  1. Total amount of deferred tax assets referred to in section 1 of this provision.

  2. Total amount of the aggregate sum of the positive net quotas of this Tax, corresponding to the tax periods between 2008 and 2015.

  3. Total amount and year of generation of the deferred tax assets referred to in letter a) above, to which, in turn, section 2 of this provision applies.

  4. Total amount and year of generation of the deferred tax assets referred to in letter a) above to which section 2 of this provision does not apply, specifying, where applicable, those derived from the application of section 4 of this provision.

    The box corresponding to the row "2007 and earlier" is blocked from being filled in, because according to the provisions of section 1 of the thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS, the right to convert deferred tax assets generated in those periods can be exercised regardless of the amount of the positive net quota of the period in which they were generated.

    The completion of the box corresponding to the total of this column is also blocked.

  • In column "AID applied in the period (by integration of provisions in the settlement)", the amount of deferred tax assets generated before January 2008 and in the years between 2008 and 2015, respectively, which are applied in the tax period subject to declaration by integration into the tax base of the provisions that generated them in the terms established by article 11.12 of the LIS, shall be entered in ##2## boxes [01525] and [01590].

    Keep in mind:

    The box corresponding to the row "2007 and earlier" must be filled out because, according to the provisions of the thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS, deferred tax assets generated in years prior to January 1, 2008, may be converted into a payable credit without having to satisfy the patrimonial benefit.

  • In column "Without patrimonial benefit (DT 33.6 d) LIS)" will be recorded from the total amount of deferred tax assets recorded in the column "Total AID amount pending application at the beginning of the period (DT 33.1 and 6 a) LIS)", from which those amounts corresponding to the deferred tax assets that have been applied in the period (by integration of provisions in the liquidation) and the deferred tax assets converted into payable credit in the period, must be deducted, the amount on which the patrimonial benefit does not correspond to be paid by conversion of said assets in the terms established in sections 1 and 2 of the thirty-third transitional provision of the LIS.

Its amount will result from the aggregation of the three previous columns, which are part of the block "AID pending application in future periods".
