Spain's tax agency said on Monday it would start using "big data" to track wealthy individuals who pretend to reside abroad for tax purposes.
The crackdown comes after some of Spain's most popular YouTube personalities moved their residency to Andorra, a wealthy microstate perched in the Pyrenees mountains between France and Spain, with lower tax rates than its larger neighbours.
As part of a push to harness more varied data, the agency will sift through as many as 70 different sources, including records from other tax payers, to highlight a few suspected fraudsters, a source with the agency said. The tax agency did not say what had motivated its clampdown.
