Spain’s PSOE has asked the Tax Agency to examine two invoices connected to Koldo García’s legal defence that were paid by Dos Mil Palabras S.L., the publisher of Okdiario. The move puts a specific tax question before the authorities, but it does not itself establish a tax breach or liability by the company.

According to elDiario.es, PSOE filed what it described as a public complaint with the Tax Agency against Dos Mil Palabras. It asks the authority to review alleged discrepancies that could affect corporate tax, VAT, and withholding taxes and payments on account.

The complaint is based on two invoices paid by the company to the law firm that defended García, a former adviser to ex-transport minister José Luis Ábalos. Their combined value was €242,000 including VAT, elDiario.es reported.

The practical scope of the filing is narrow but consequential: PSOE wants the Tax Agency to examine how that expense was declared and what tax treatment it received. A party complaint can place documents and questions before the administration; the agency must decide whether to act and, if it does, assess the underlying contracts, payments, accounts and tax returns. The supplied reporting does not say that an inspection has begun or that the authority has reached any finding on the invoices.

That distinction matters. The reported filing is a procedural and political act, not a substitute for a tax assessment. The available material also contains no known response to this complaint from Dos Mil Palabras, the law firm or the Tax Agency, and does not include the full complaint or the accounting documents behind the alleged discrepancies.

The development is therefore the PSOE’s request for scrutiny and the taxes it identifies, rather than a sanction or an official ruling.
