Exemption for sale of habitual home not available if not resident at time of sale or in two prior years

A taxpayer asks whether they can claim the exemption for selling their home as a dependent. The DGT responds that the home was not their habitual residence at the time of sale or in the two years before.

The question raised

Question posed: To determine whether the exemption under Article 33.4.b) of the LIRPF may be applied.

The DGT's ruling

To apply the exemption under Article 33.4.b) of the LIRPF, the dwelling must be the habitual residence at the time of the transfer or must have been so during the two preceding years. In this case, as residence in the dwelling ceased in 2022 due to health reasons, the requirement of habitual residence is not met for the sale carried out in 2025. Mere registration in the municipal register is not sufficient evidence to prove habitual residence.
