Reinvestment exemption denied for property extensions or lack of ownership of the new residence

A taxpayer inquired whether the reinvestment exemption for their primary residence could be applied if the funds were used for extension works on a new property. The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) ruled that the exemption only covers acquisition or renovation, specifically excluding extensions.

In 6 key points

How it affects those involved

Taxpayers must ensure that funds intended for reinvestment exemptions are used strictly for the purchase or renovation of a new primary residence, as spending on property extensions or failing to hold full ownership of the new property will disqualify them from the tax relief.
