I'm from germany and would like to know how private bitcoin profits are taxed in spain .
Just the profits from normal trading on exchanges and holding coins not longer then one year.

In germany it is a "private sale" and the profits are added to your income, except you holded the coins one year or more.
How is it in spain ?

In Spain the profits for selling bitcoins which you have kept for less than one year are added to your income and taxed as such. All those profits would go to the "base general".

You can find the rates that apply here:

Tabla Tramos IRPF 2017
Base liquidable general Tipo impositivo 2016
Desde Hasta
0 12.450 19%
12.450 20.200 24%
20.200 35.200 30%
35.200 60.000 37%
60.000 - 45%

EDIT: There may be some differences in the table of the "base general" depending on your "comunidad autónoma". The table above for the "base general" applies to most of Spain, including Madrid. However, Barcelona may be approximately 2% more expensive.

If you keep them for more than one year, the table that applies is called "base del ahorro". For more than one year:

6.000 50.000 21%
50.000 - 23%

I am not an expert in finance but I think it works that way.

Hey Serpens66,

I moved from Germany to Spain and just got into the tax issue too. As far as I'm aware there's no 1 year differentiation here any more. Trading profits always count as savings income, so the base del ahorro (max 23%) applies, no matter how long you held.

I think Shawshank is right but not in the last point, as pharesim has said. It used to be like that but government changed it in 2015. So, it doesnt matter how long you hold them.

Something that hasnt been said is that as far as taxes are concerned, a miner is considered a businessman, so tax to pay is different: it is the IAE.
This article has a great general overview on crypto taxes in Spain (in Spanish):
