Casa Real Publishes 2025 Accounts After Using Reserves to Fund Digital Modernization

Tapping nearly €1 million of accumulated remanentes to pay for secure communications and IT upgrades shows the palace relying on carryover savings while state budgets remain frozen.

Overview

  • On Tuesday, June 30, 2026 the Casa Real published its 2025 annual accounts showing the statutory public allocation stayed at €8,431,150, the same figure in force since 2021.
  • The accounts record use of €983,403 from accumulated remanentes to finance the Plan Estratégico 2025-2026 and related projects in digital systems, secure communications and audiovisual equipment.
  • Budget execution reached 99.74% with net obligations of €9,390,116.95 and a small positive cash remanent of €24,436.05, while personnel costs remained the largest item at €4.92 million.
  • The institution posted a negative economic-patrimonial result of €719,334.93 for 2025, which Zarzuela attributes mainly to accounting amortizations and the one-off impact of funding modernization and payroll updates under Royal Decree-Law 14/2025.
  • The Tribunal de Cuentas issued a favorable audit for the third consecutive year, which the Casa Real cites as validation of its transparency and of using remanentes to carry out strategic investment; continued reliance on those savings could limit future fiscal flexibility if state budgets stay unchanged.
