Foreign pension benefits considered as earnings from employment

A retiree asks about the taxation of benefits from a foreign pension scheme into which their company made contributions during a business trip. The DGT states that, as the scheme is not regulated by Spanish law or Directive 2003/41/CE, the specific treatment under the Personal Income Tax Law for pension schemes does not apply, and instead the general treatment for earnings from employment applies.

The question raised

Cuestión planteada Tributación de la prestación.

The DGT's ruling

Las prestaciones de sistemas de pensiones de naturaleza privada vinculados a una relación laboral deben considerarse rendimientos del trabajo. Por tanto, les corresponde el tratamiento tributario previsto en los artículos 17 a 20 de la Ley 35/2006.
