FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a complex case?

Cases involving more than 10 capital gains transactions, crypto with multiple exchanges, income from more than two countries, or other non standard situations may require additional work. You'll always be notified before any extra cost.

What income types do you support?

All of them. Employment, freelance/self employment, pensions, dividends, interest, rental income, capital gains, crypto, and any other income taxable in Portugal.

Does Portugal tax foreign income?

It depends on your tax regime. Under the general regime, Portugal taxes worldwide income. Under NHR 2.0, most foreign income is exempt. The correct classification of your income is critical and is exactly what we handle.

I have income from another country. Can you handle that?

Yes. We consider dual tax treaties and classify your foreign income according to Portuguese tax law and the applicable treaty with your country of origin.

I'm on the NHR regime. Does that change anything?

Yes. NHR returns require specific income classification to ensure your exemptions are applied correctly. We handle NHR returns regularly and know the nuances.

Can my spouse and I file jointly?

Yes. Joint filing is included in the price at no extra cost.

Do I need to give you access to my Finanças account?

Yes. We'll need your NIF and Finanças password to file on your behalf.

When is the deadline for filing taxes in Portugal?

June 30th of the year following the tax year. For example, the 2025 tax year must be filed by June 30th, 2026.

What if I've never filed taxes in Portugal before?

No problem. We'll walk you through what's needed and handle the entire process.

Can I file my own tax return in Portugal?

You can, but the Portuguese tax system is complex, especially for foreign residents. Incorrect classification of income or missed treaty provisions can lead to overpaying tax or penalties. The cost of getting it wrong often exceeds the cost of having it done properly.

I'm already a Portugalize client. Do you already have my information?

If we've handled your visa, NHR, freelancer setup, or other tax services, we already have context on your situation. This makes the process faster and more accurate.

Do you also handle US or UK tax returns?

Yes. We offer combined filing services for US + Portugal and UK + Portugal that coordinate both returns together.
