Answer

Why do small tax mistakes in Spain sometimes turn into large debts?

A missed tax return can trigger an automatic assessment, and then reminder fees and interest may start to build up. If the problem is left unresolved, a relatively small error can become a much larger liability over time. In Mallorca, this is a common reason people end up seeking debt advice early.
