is often wrong for someone living in Spain.<\/p><h2>Is it legal to own a US LLC as a Spanish resident?<\/h2><p>Yes.<\/p><p>There is no Spanish law that prohibits a Spanish resident from owning a foreign company, including a US Limited Liability Company.<\/p><p>Owning the LLC is not the issue.<\/p><p>The issue is how the income that flows through that LLC is taxed once you are a Spanish tax resident, and what reporting obligations the ownership creates.<\/p><p>You become a <a href=\"https:\/\/sede.agenciatributaria.gob.es\/Sede\/en_gb\/no-residentes\/residencia-personas-fisicas-juridicas\/persona-fisica-residente-espana.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Spanish tax resident<\/a> once you <strong>spend more than 183 days in Spain<\/strong> in a calendar year, or once Spain becomes your centre of economic interests.<\/p><p>From that point, your worldwide income falls within the scope of Spanish taxation, and the <strong>US LLC Spain tax<\/strong> question becomes immediately relevant.<\/p><h2>The core problem: the US and Spain classify an LLC differently<\/h2><p>This is the heart of the matter, and it is where most of the confusion around <strong>US LLC Spain tax<\/strong> treatment arises.<\/p><p>In the United States, a single-member LLC is generally treated as a <strong>disregarded entity<\/strong>.<\/p><p>This means the IRS looks through the company and taxes the income directly in the hands of the owner, as though the company did not exist for <a href=\"https:\/\/delaguialuzon.com\/en\/blog\/reduce-your-tax-burden-in-spain\/\">tax purposes<\/a>.<\/p><p>Many people assume Spain will do the same.<\/p><p>It does not automatically do so.<\/p><p>Spain does not simply adopt the US tax label.<\/p><p>Instead, the Spanish tax authority examines the actual characteristics of the LLC and decides for itself how to classify it under Spanish law.<\/p><h2>Transparent versus opaque: the two possible US LLC Spain tax outcomes<\/h2><table style=\"width: 100%;
