Fiscal residency depends on presence in Spain or centre of interests; exemption for foreign work excludes tax havens

A machine operator working on an international vessel asks whether he remains a Spanish tax resident and whether he qualifies for exemption due to foreign work. The DGT states that residency depends on whether absences are sporadic or if residence in another country is proven, and that the exemption does not apply if the employer is a tax haven entity.
