Physical resident in Canary Islands may top up RIC on online course profits

A physical resident in the Canary Islands, registered in the IAE as an educational activity, offers online courses to international clients from their studio in the Canary Islands via a Dutch platform. The DGT confirms that the earnings constitute an economic activity due to self-organised use of productive resources, and that if the income is estimated directly and accounts are kept in accordance with the Commercial Code, the RIC may be topped up on profits generated from establishments in the Canary Islands.

The question raised

Question posed: Whether the profits obtained from these distance learning courses are valid for the allocation to the Canary Islands Investment Reserve (RIC).

The DGT's ruling

The provision of courses constitutes an economic activity when there is an organization of production means on one's own account, regardless of the location of the clients or the intermediation of foreign platforms. Access to the RIC (Art. 27 Law 19/1994) requires: economic activity pursuant to Art. 27 LIRPF, direct estimation, accounting according to the Commercial Code from the year of allocation until the permanence of the materialized assets, and profits derived from establishments in the Canary Islands. Failure to comply with the requirements of materialization and permanence results in regularization with late payment interest.
