Portugal is one of the most attractive countries in Europe to work as a freelancer. New freelancers pay reduced rates in their first 5 years. Under 35s can pay as low as 0% in year one.
But once you're registered, you're responsible for a recurring list of obligations. Every month. In Portuguese, on government portals not designed for expats.
Eight services, one monthly fee. No add-ons, no surprises.
One dedicated tax specialist, not a chatbot or a ticket queue. Replies in English, in plain words, within one business day. Same person, from day one.
Every filing in your plan is covered. No per-declaration extras, no "end of year" invoices, no scope creep. €165/month, first month and every month after.
Portuguese tax deadlines are unforgiving and never in English. We file on time, every time, and ask for what we need weeks in advance.
Most accountants file what you send them. We tell you what to do before the year ends. When to invoice, what to deduct, how to structure your income, so your tax bill is as low as it should be.
