Webinar on “Taxation in Spain in times of COVID-19: Opportunities and challenges”
On July 22nd, the Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg organized a webinar on “Taxation in Spain in times of COVID-19: Opportunities and challenges”, in collaboration with its member law firm Garrigues. The webinar was held within the framework of the Spanish Financial Forum, a committee of the Chamber focused on the financial sector in Luxembourg.
During the webinar, the speakers, Pablo Torrano, Albert Collado and Nuria Cabré, three partners from the tax department of Garrigues in Barcelona, presented the different options through which the losses generated by the crisis derived from the Covid-19 could be compensated for tax purposes, as well as the operations that could be considered taking advantage of the drop in asset valuation.
On the other hand, the tax changes implemented in Spain in the recent months were discussed, as well as the prospects of possible new measures that could be adopted in the future.
Finally, a round of questions and answers was held in which the participants were able to raise their doubts with the speakers. Thus, various topics were discussed, such as the competitiveness of the Spanish tax system when it comes to attracting new residents or the range of possibilities that arise when making a donation.
From the Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg, we thank the speakers for their presentation, and our partner company Garrigues for its collaboration in organising the webinar.

Comercial opportunities in Belgium and Luxembourg after COVID-19
COVID-19 has had a very different impact in Belgium and Luxembourg marked by a light lockdown and strong determination by public administration to support its business and protect employment. This health crisis has been without any doubt a mayor disruptive factor that highlighted some existing tendencies already putting in place in both markets. That is why, despite the limited uncertainty, some opportunity window seem to be opening in the next months in Belgium and Luxembourg in the upcoming months making them two very interesting destinations for internationalization strategies for Spanish companies.
In this context, the Chamber has developed a series of collaborations with various Spanish territorial chambers to present the Belgian and Luxembourg markets to Spanish companies. In particular, presentations were made for the Chamber of Commerce of Pontevedra, Vigo and Villagarcía de Arousa, Madrid Network and the Chambers of Commerce of Zaragoza and Mallorca. Throughout these webinars, the main sectors of interest in each country were presented and a series of recommendations were given to companies interested in internationalizing their product or service.
The internationalization of companies will be a key element for their survival in the post-Covid situation.
During the months of September and October, the Chamber is planning new presentations.
These are the dates:

Thus, various topics were discussed such as the situation of vacation real estate assets located on the coast in the face of declining tourism or what consequences the increase in eCom transactions we are experiencing today will have for the retail sector.
