Phases of the procedure/service

Start: At the request of the taxpayer, by submitting a self-assessment showing an amount to be refunded, a refund request or a communication of data, in accordance with the provisions in each case of the regulations governing each tax.

Procedure: The Administration will examine the documentation submitted and compare it with the data and background information in its possession.

Termination. The return procedure will end in one of the following ways: Agreement recognizing the requested refund (the agreement will be deemed notified upon receipt of the bank transfer or, where applicable, the check). When the recognised return is subject to total or partial precautionary retention, the adoption of the precautionary measure will be notified together with the return agreement. The recognition of the refund will not prevent the subsequent verification of the tax obligation through verification or investigation procedures. Expiration (when the procedure is suspended for reasons attributable to the taxpayer, the Administration will warn the taxpayer that, after three months, it may declare the procedure lapse). For the initiation of a data verification procedure, limited verification or inspection. For other circumstances, for example, once the period established in the regulations governing each tax has elapsed and, in any case, the period of six months, without the payment of the refund having been ordered for a reason attributable to the tax administration, the latter will pay the late payment interest, without the need for the obliged party to request it. Late payment interest will accrue from the end of said period until the date on which payment is ordered on the amount of the refund, if applicable.
