Wallapop has recently confirmed its active collaboration with the different bodies of the law , including the National Police and the Mossos D'Esquadra.

The law requires you to declare everything you buy second-hand

Or so the theory indicates. The Treasury establishes that any object exchanged between two individuals in a remunerated manner will be subject to a 4% tax on the total value of the sale that will have to be borne by the buyer through the presentation of a model 600 in the AEAT . No, this is not a joke.
