However, as Law 2\/2014 of January 27 on fiscal, administrative, financial and public sector measures, in its article 122 it modified several of the precepts of Law 19\/2010 on inheritance tax regulation, in the We currently have two regulatory frameworks in Catalonia:<\/p>\n<p>For deaths that occurred between January 1, 2010 and January 31, 2014, which are governed by Law 19\/2010 on inheritance tax regulation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For deaths that have occurred since February 1, 2014, which will be governed by Law 2\/2014 of January 27<\/strong>. <strong>This regulation is in force and without modification since then and until now, years 2016.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Deaths up to December 31, 2009, we do not take them into consideration, because they will be fiscally prescribed inheritances.<\/p>\n<p>The application of the Catalan inheritance tax regulations depends on the <strong>habitual residence of the deceased person<\/strong>.

We have already referred to this aspect in other entries of this blog. In the case of urban properties located in Catalonia, this value is obtained by multiplying the cadastral value by a coefficient, and multiplying by 0.8. In the case of rustic goods, an amount per hectare is applied, depending on the quality and situation of the land.
