Registration of property title does not generate capital gains or losses for Income Tax purposes

A taxpayer requested clarification regarding Transfer Tax (ITP) and Stamp Duty (AJD) on the registration of a property title and its impact on Personal Income Tax (IRPF). The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) clarified that registration does not constitute an onerous transfer if the tax has already been paid, and that it does not generate income for IRPF purposes as it does not alter the composition of the taxpayer's assets.
