30% reduction not applicable to performance or profit-sharing bonuses lacking a generation period exceeding two years or irregular nature

A taxpayer inquired whether a bonus based on profit-sharing and performance, intended for long-term employees, qualifies for the 30% reduction under Article 18.2 of the Personal Income Tax Act (LIRPF). The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) ruled that it is not applicable, as such payments are not considered irregular income nor do they have a generation period exceeding two years.
