Shakira is accused of failing to pay about $16.4million in taxes to the state between 2012 and 2014, a period when Juberías said she spent most of her time in Spain, though her official residence was listed as the Bahamas.

A three-year investigation into the singer’s finances found “sufficient evidence of criminality” for the case to go to trial, Barcelona Judge Marco Juberías said.

Shakira was first charged with tax evasion by Spanish authorities in 2018, and the singer maintains she is innocent and paid what she owed when she was alerted of the outstanding balance. The Colombian-born singer spends much of her time in Spain with Ex husband Gerard Piqué, a Spanish professional soccer player at F.C. Barcelona, and their two children. According to Spanish law, anyone living in the country for more than six months in a year must pay taxes.

Juberías also alleged the singer and a financial advisor used multiple companies based in tax haven countries in a move to conceal Shakira’s revenue streams.

Shakira could face a fine and even jail time if convicted.
