For taxpayers due to personal obligation residing in any Autonomous Community

Law 22/2009, of December 18, regulating the financing system of the Autonomous Communities of the common regime and Cities with Statute of Autonomy and modifying certain tax regulations ( BOE of December 19), establishes in its article 47 that the Autonomous Communities may assume in the Wealth Tax, among other regulatory powers, those related to the determination of the exempt minimum.

Consequently, the tax base will be reduced, exclusively in the event of a personal obligation to contribute , by the amount that has been approved by the Autonomous Community as the exempt minimum.
