Phases of the procedure/service

Start: Ex officio intervention by the local office. Upon the death of any of the parties liable for payment of the tax debt, the collection procedure shall continue with their heirs and, where applicable, legatees, without further formality than the confirmation of their death and notification to the heirs, requesting payment of the tax debt and pending costs of the originator.

Procedure and conclusion: When the heir alleges having exercised the right to deliberate, the collection procedure shall be suspended until the deadline granted for such purpose has expired, during which the heir may request a list of the originator's pending tax debts from the Tax Agency, for merely informative purposes. While the inheritance remains in abeyance, the pending tax debt collection procedure may continue against the heir's assets and rights, for which purpose the actions of the administrator or representative shall be understood. Likewise, upon dissolution and liquidation of a company or organisation, the collection procedure shall continue with its partners, participants or co-owners, on confirming the cancellation of its legal status. Likewise, upon dissolution and liquidation of a foundation, the collection procedure shall continue with the recipients of its assets and rights. The Tax Agency may approach any of the partners, participants, co-owners or recipients or against all of these simultaneously or successively, to request payment of the tax debt and pending costs.
