1. Go to the Social Security website and click on Importass. Treasury Portal in the right-hand menu:
2. Next, click on Área Personal at the top right, or on the Entrar en tu área personal button:
3. On the screen that appears, identify yourself by selecting the option that suits you best, for example, DNIe or certificate if you have a digital certificate:
4. Once you have logged in, scroll down to the Trabajo autónomo (Self-employment) section and click on Ver tus datos de autónomo (View your self-employed details):
5. All your self-employed details will be displayed. Click on the last option in the left-hand menu, “7. Domiciliación bancaria” (Bank account direct debit):
6. Here you will see the IBAN where Social Security currently debits your self-employed contributions. If you want to change it, click on the Modificar (Modify) button:
7. This is a two-step process. In the first step, enter the new IBAN where you want your self-employed contribution to be debited. Enter the account starting with “ES”, without spaces. This is very important, as otherwise there may be issues when reading the digits.
Select whether the account is yours, meaning if you are the account holder, and click the Continuar (Continue) button.
8. The second step is to review the information. Here you can modify any details if they are incorrect, or click the Confirmar (Confirm) button to finish changing your bank account in Social Security.
Keep in mind that the change to your bank account in Social Security will take effect from the following month, so be very careful not to close your bank account beforehand!
Once you have finished, the system will notify you that your bank account for self-employed contributions has been successfully changed. You can print a receipt of the changes made by clicking Imprimir (Print) at the bottom.
