Criminal Lawyers Canary Islands: Experts in Criminal Law in the Archipelago

Based in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Santa Cruz de Tenerife, we offer integral legal coverage to all islands. The Canaries are an external EU border with unique fiscal and customs particularities demanding highly specialized lawyers capable of navigating between state regulations and Canarian jurisdiction.

Customs and Tax Criminal Law (REF)

The Canary Islands Economic and Fiscal Regime (REF) and its free zone status generate a unique administrative and criminal typology:

  • Smuggling Crimes: Defense of importers, logistics companies, and freight forwarders against accusations of fraud in customs clearance or introduction of illicit goods (tobacco, alcohol, electronics).
  • Tax Fraud and ZEC: Technical defense before the State and Canarian Tax Agency for discrepancies in applying the benefits of the Canary Special Zone (ZEC) or the materialization of the Reserve for Investments in the Canaries (RIC). We prove the economic reality of investments to avoid convictions for tax fraud.

Human Trafficking and Transnational Crime

The islands' geostrategic position makes them a hotspot for international trafficking:

  • Irregular Immigration: Defense in proceedings related to "pateras," defending boat skippers accused of crimes against the rights of foreign citizens (Art. 318 bis CP), seeking to differentiate humanitarian aid from profit-driven human trafficking.
  • International Public Health: Defense in anti-drug operations with vessels intercepted on the high seas diverted to Canarian ports. We question jurisdiction and chain of custody of evidence.
