The family of Angela Agudothe 24-year-old Valencian woman in a coma who is hospitalized in the ICU from the Bangkok Samui hospital in Thailand after suffering a serious motorcycle accident on October 6, will have to pay more than 35% of the 301,000 euros raised through 27,494 donations on the GoFundMe platform, as established by the current Inheritance and Donation Tax regulations and explained by the girl’s boyfriend.
It should be noted that this tax, of a state nature but of autonomous management, taxes acquired assets and rights when they have been made by natural persons, such as inheritances, legacies, donations. When this acquisition is carried out by a legal entity (company or foundation), the operation is taxed by Corporate Tax.

Regarding the large donation received to bring Ángela back to Spain, her boyfriend Luis questioned this Tuesday in a interview in ‘El Hormiguero’ the uncertainty as to whether the 300,000 euros will be enoughsince it is not a complete figure, since, as he explained, they must “pay taxes close to 35%.” “We still don’t know what money we are going to have when the time comes,” he stressed.

After that, the tax rate is obtained by applying the corresponding multiplier coefficient based on the total amount obtained in accordance with the previous calculation. amount of pre-existing assets of the acquiring person and the kinship group he or she has with the transferor. In this case, group IV, since these are donations from third parties without family affinity, the final figure could rise a few percent more depending on the family’s assets.
It would exceed 35%

In any case, his brother Diego asserted that, if there is money left over from crowdfunding, the family will contact “some solidarity institution, some association that needs it or a person in the same conditions.” “We would donate every last cent left,” he guaranteed, in the same way that he pointed out that they would publish all the invoices corresponding to offer “the greatest possible transparency.”
“We need an urgent response from the Government”
«What we need is an urgent response from the Presidency of the Government, We don’t know if they are going to help us or not.». These were the words of Luis, the boyfriend of Ángela, the 24-year-old Valencian woman who remains in a coma in a hospital in Thailand after suffering a motorcycle accident, during a live connection on the program ‘El Hormiguero’. The couple also acknowledged that the transfer would be “feasible” in a week.

However, the family’s main request to the Government is to send a medicalized military plane, since the health experts of the Aeroevacuation Medical Unit (UMAER) can guarantee a “safer” transfer with “greater guarantees than any private company.”
In this regard, he pointed out that they are in contact with the Spanish Embassy in Thailand, which is following the case closely as confirmed by this newspaper, but that they have not yet received a response from the Government. “The reality is that, today, we do not have an answer as to whether they are going to help us or not and what we need is an urgent response from the Presidency of the Government,” he lamented.
Regarding Angela’s state of health, Luis stated that she is still in a coma, with a critical diagnosis and without certainty that the evolution is positive. «The forecast changes day by day“, he noted, although he acknowledged that if it remains stable within this severity, “the transfer would be feasible in a week.”
