Overview
- The first prize remains set at €400,000 per décimo for 2025, unchanged since 2011 under rules administered by Loterías y Apuestas del Estado.
- A 20% levy applies to amounts above the €40,000 exemption, introduced in 2013 with the current exemption level in place since 2020.
- Analyses calculate that matching 2011 purchasing power would require roughly a €524,000 gross prize today, versus €328,000 net under current taxation.
- Housing comparisons show the payout no longer stretches to two average homes as it often did in 2011, with many winners now limited to one property outside prime urban areas.
- For prizes over €2,000, payout must be processed through BBVA or CaixaBank, while smaller amounts can be redeemed at retail points, according to recent guidance ahead of the December 22 draw.
