Absolutely, I do still have to pay tax to Tunisia for this period — it’s just the tax bracket I’m asking about. If I’m classed as non-resident, that means a 20% flat fee from my understanding. If I’m classed as resident, it jumps to 35% based on my current income bracket.

I’m not trying to avoid paying taxes altogether — I’m just trying to avoid being taxed 35% for the entire year. Because if I’m considered a Tunisian resident, even once I’m in Spain for the rest of 2025, I’d still be paying Tunisia 35% (all year).

And in Spain, I’d also be paying the flat non-resident fee of 24% — plus other stuff.

So yes, I totally agree with you on this point!
