How we work with companies in Valencia

The same regional legislation

Cooperatives and foundations in Valencia are governed by the same Valencian laws as those in Alicante, so the framework we apply every day is exactly yours.

Remote work and scheduled visits

Documentation is exchanged by secure electronic means. Visits to your premises are planned in advance for key meetings, cash counts and year-end inventory counts.

Travel throughout the province

Valencia and Alicante are well connected by motorway and rail, which makes it easy to attend physical counts at warehouses, logistics facilities or fruit and vegetable packing centres when the engagement requires it.

Agreed timetable

At the outset we set the dates for the preparation of the accounts, delivery of the draft and issue of the report, taking into account the specific deadlines of cooperatives, foundations and calls for aid applications.

When do you need an auditor in Valencia?

  • Your company exceeds the size thresholds. Companies that, for two consecutive financial years, exceed two of these thresholds must be audited: total assets of €2,850,000, net turnover of €5,700,000 or an average of 50 employees (Article 263.2 of the Spanish Companies Act, LSC). Find out more →
  • You are a Valencian cooperative. Article 50 of Legislative Decree 2/2015 requires an audit when it is imposed by audit legislation, when the cooperative has a credit section, when 10% of the members or 50 of them request it, or when the articles of association provide for it. Housing cooperatives have additional cases (Article 91.13). Find out more →
  • You are a foundation in the Valencian Community. Law 8/1998 (Article 21.6) adds four further circumstances to the three general thresholds, such as prices charged to beneficiaries exceeding 50% of income. Any two of them are sufficient. Find out more →
  • You must justify IVACE+i aid. Many IVACE+i and IVACE+i Innovación calls are justified by means of a grant expenditure statement and a report from a ROAC-registered auditor, following the agency's template and Order EHA/1434/2007, including the ‘Extra DANA’ calls. Find out more →
  • You have received more than €600,000 in grants. Any entity required to prepare accounts that receives public grants or aid of more than €600,000 in a financial year must have that year and the years of execution audited (second additional provision of the RLAC). Find out more →
  • Town councils and public bodies. We work with municipal comptroller's offices on financial control and on audits of dependent entities, without prejudice to the external audit carried out by the Sindicatura de Comptes (the Valencian public audit office). Find out more →

Valencian Community legislation we take into account

In addition to national audit legislation (the Spanish Audit Act, Law 22/2015, and its implementing regulation approved by Royal Decree 2/2021), in the province of Valencia we apply the regional rules that determine when an entity must be audited:

  • Cooperatives: the consolidated text of the Valencian Cooperatives Act (Legislative Decree 2/2015) regulates the audit in Article 50, the cases for housing cooperatives in Article 91.13, the preparation of accounts within four months (Article 63.4) and their filing with the Cooperatives Register within one month of approval (Article 63.8). Generalitat Laws 5/2025 and 5/2026 amended several provisions, but not Articles 50 or 91.13.
  • Foundations: Law 8/1998 on Foundations of the Valencian Community sets out in Article 21.6 seven circumstances, any two of which make the audit mandatory, in addition to the audit required in circumstances of particularly serious financial difficulty.
  • Aid: the calls for applications of IVACE+i, IVACE+i Innovación and the Generalitat's regional ministries specify in their terms, published in the DOGV (Official Journal of the Generalitat Valenciana), whether the justification requires an auditor's report and which template to use.
  • Public sector: external audit of the Generalitat, local authorities and the rest of the Valencian public sector is the responsibility of the Sindicatura de Comptes (the Valencian public audit office), governed by Law 6/1985 of 11 May.

Each case must be analysed in the light of the entity's articles of association, figures and specific terms of the call.

Frequently asked questions

Auditors in Valencia: frequently asked questions

No. Our only office is at Avda. Maisonnave, 30, 1.º B, in Alicante. We work with clients throughout Spain: much of the engagement is coordinated remotely and the team travels to Valencia for the meetings, inventory counts and checks that need to be carried out at your premises.

Yes. When inventories are significant, attending the physical count is a necessary procedure and we plan it with you before the year-end. The date, the warehouses to be visited and the counting instructions are agreed in advance.

Yes. Under Article 50.1.b) of Legislative Decree 2/2015, a cooperative with a credit section must be audited regardless of its size. The auditor is appointed by the general assembly (Article 31.1.a).

It could. Law 8/1998 does not only look at assets, income and headcount: other factors also count, such as contracts with trustees or significant disposals of assets. It is advisable to review this with the figures at each year-end.

Yes. As a firm registered with the ROAC, we can issue the review report on the grant expenditure statement using the template required by the call for applications. We recommend getting in touch before the end of the execution period so that any issues can be detected in good time.

The recording of the damage, insurance payouts, impairment of assets and the aid received and its justification will need to be reviewed, and it will also be necessary to assess whether there are doubts about the business’s ability to continue as a going concern. It is advisable to prepare this documentation before the fieldwork.

In capital companies, the general meeting must appoint the auditor before the end of the financial year to be audited (Article 264.1 of the Spanish Companies Act, LSC). In Valencian cooperatives, the appointment is made by the general assembly.
