The historic G7 agreement is receiving attention, but Europe has had an outermost region since 2000 that combines an attractive tax framework with a strong base for internationalising businesses in many sectors.
The Canary Islands occupy a strategic position between America, Europe and Africa and offer one of Europe’s lowest corporate tax rates under an EU-approved framework.
This location can support SMEs in many sectors by reducing operating and tax costs. Remote work and digital technologies also make it possible to establish an operational base in the Canary Islands and expand internationally.
Even taking as a starting point the 15% for large companies according to the last G7 agreement, being an attractive and economic percentage, in the Canary Islands we have a Special Zone where the corporate tax rate is 4%, this could help any SME to strategically expand its operations and open to new markets, since the geographical location and the different commercial agreements of internationalization that the islands have will allow you to expand at a low cost.
Not only do we have this peculiarity, but also despite being part of the European Union we do not work with the European VAT, we have our own “Impuesto General Indirecto Canario”, whose general rate is 7%.
Likewise, we have a Fiscal Regime that cares about the growth of the company, with benefits that are completely compatible with the Canary Islands Special Zone, with considerable tax deductions, the highest in Spain. A crime rate of -11% according to the INE, a semi-tropical climate, with temperatures of 25-30 throughout the year.
We have to understand that the Canary Islands is not only one of the favorite areas for European tourism, it has a hidden potential behind its taxation, cost of living, geographical position and a rich human capital with highly qualified professionals and Know How for companies.
