Tenerife Free Trade Zone (ZFT)

ZFT: Flexibility and Tax Benefits for Companies

The Tenerife Free Trade Zone allows companies that meet certain operational, investment and employment requirements to benefit from reduced tax rates. Operations in the ZFT are simple: goods stored, transformed or distributed are exempt from taxes, tariffs or indirect taxes until their final destination is decided.

Commercial Relations and Logistics Operations

Tenerife and West Africa: Established Trade Relations

From Tenerife, companies benefit from a well-established commercial relationship with West Africa, with more than 22,000 TEUs and 60,000 tons of cargo moved in 2021. We ensure an agile administrative process with services such as container scanners and a port inspection center.

European Legislation and Tax Advantages

Single Economic and Fiscal System in the EU

Tenerife enjoys differentiated tax benefits within Spain and the EU. This economic and tax system, permanently integrated into the EU legal framework through Article 349 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the EU, offers exceptional advantages for investors and companies.

IGIC and ZEC

IGIC and ZEC: Significant Tax Incentives

Tenerife does not apply VAT, but rather the IGIC (Canary Islands General Indirect Tax) with a general rate of 7%. Furthermore, companies registered in the ZEC do not pay IGIC on supplies to each other or on imports. Companies that meet certain requirements and register in the ZEC benefit from a corporate rate of 4% on the gross tax base on operations carried out materially and effectively in or from the Canary Islands, among other advantages.
