Overview

• The Junta announced a 30% deduction on veterinary care with a €100 annual cap, applied for one year for new pets, three years for shelter adoptions, and for the lifetime of assistance dogs.
• The measure is limited to medical care such as vaccines and treatments and to taxpayers with taxable bases up to €80,000 individually or €100,000 jointly.
• The government projects about 180,000–182,000 beneficiaries and an annual fiscal cost of roughly €12 million, within a broader package the Junta says saves €55 million a year.
• Officials frame this as the seventh tax-cut round since 2019 and cite cumulative annual tax relief near €1,000 million, while opposition parties and unions call the move electoralist and misaligned with service pressures.
• Regional reporting details proposed conditions including invoiced expenses and eligibility from January 1, 2025, with assistance-dog and veterinary groups welcoming the relief but noting the €100 cap is modest.
