Phases of the procedure/service

Start / Procedure: When a tax debtor is also a creditor of the Tax Agency as a result of a recognised loan, once the voluntary payment period has elapsed the debt shall be offset ex officio and the applicable surcharges of the executive period shall be offset against the loan. Nonetheless, the following will be offset during the voluntary payment period: the amounts to be deposited and returned that result from the same limited verification or inspection procedure, with the corresponding differential amount being deposited or returned, the amounts to be deposited and returned that result from the practice of a new settlement due to having been canceled another previous one. In this case, the amount due shall be offset under the notification of the new settlement and the party liable for payment shall be informed of the differential amount so that they may deposit it within the deadlines established in Article 62.2 of General Tax Act 58/2003, of 17 December. In this case, the default interest accrued shall be settled pursuant to the terms of Article 26.5 of General Tax Act 58/2003, of 17 December, which shall be offset under the same agreement.

End: Upon adoption of the offset agreement, the corresponding amount of the debts and loans shall be declared settled Said agreement shall be notified to the interested party and will serve as proof of the settling of the debt. If the loan is smaller than the debt, the following will apply: The part of the debt that exceeds the credit will follow the ordinary regime, initiating the enforcement procedure, if it is not entered upon maturity, or continuing said procedure, if it had already been initiated previously, being possible to practice successive compensations with the credits that subsequently can be recognized in favor of the person obliged to pay. The concurrent party will proceed as provided in section 1. In the event that the credit is greater than the debt, once the compensation has been declared, the difference will be paid to the interested party.
