Abstract: Purpose - This paper aims to analyse the Spanish confiscation regulation considering the specialised literature as well as the relevant case law. Design/methodology/approach - The Spanish confiscation regulation and the practical application is discussed in this paper. Findings - The paper shows the shortfalls in the regulation with regards to Spain's international obligations and the inconsistencies in the judicial application of the legislation, which limit the possibilities of putting a stop to criminal activity centring on obtaining huge profits. Research limitations/implications - The paper focuses exclusively on the general Spanish confiscation regulation, dispensing with compared analysis. Only Spanish literature is used. Originality/value - The paper provides readers of other nationalities a complete overview of the matter.
