Digital Notifications Aren't Always Enough

Portuguese law allows electronic notifications, but certain official communications are still exclusively sent by physical mail.

What Could Be Waiting in Your Mailbox?

If your registered tax address is outside Portugal, critical letters from Finanças may never reach you. By the time you discover a problem, deadlines may have passed and penalties may have accumulated.

  • Audit & Documentation Requests Tax authorities requesting additional information or clarification
  • Fines & Payment Warnings Notifications of penalties, late fees, or overdue tax obligations
  • Legal Summons & Enforcement Formal legal notices and debt collection communications

The Solution: A Local Representative

With a licensed tax representative in Portugal, every piece of correspondence from Finanças is received at a local address, scanned, and delivered to your email within hours.

  • Physical mail converted to digital instantly
  • Never miss a deadline again
  • Peace of mind for €67/year

Who Benefits From This Service?

If any of these situations sound familiar, a tax representative can save you time, money, and stress.

Property Owners

You own real estate in Portugal — whether a holiday home, investment property, or Airbnb rental — and need to stay on top of property-related tax obligations.

Understanding What This Service Covers

To set clear expectations, our tax representation is specifically focused on the following:

  • Collecting and digitally forwarding all correspondence sent by the Portuguese Tax Authority to your registered address
  • Supporting you in accessing or recovering your Portal das Finanças login credentials when needed
  • Delivering prompt email alerts so critical tax deadlines and notices never catch you off guard

This service does not include tax filing, accounting services, financial planning, or legal tax advice. For those needs, we recommend working with a qualified tax consultant or accountant.

Common Questions

If you live outside Portugal and have a NIF, having a tax representative ensures you receive all official correspondence from Finanças. While digital notifications exist, certain legal and fiscal documents are still sent exclusively by physical mail. Without a local representative, these could be lost or significantly delayed.
Simply submit your passport and current NIF certificate, then sign our digital Power of Attorney. We handle the formal notification to Finanças and register ourselves as your new representative. You don't need to contact your previous provider — we take care of everything.
Most NIF updates are completed within a few business days. We guarantee your NIF will be updated within 12 business days — if we fail to meet this timeline, you receive a full refund, no questions asked.
The €67 fee covers one year of tax representation service. It renews annually if you wish to continue. You can cancel at any time through your account — there are no long-term commitments or cancellation penalties.
Without a tax representative, official mail from Finanças may not reach you, especially if you live outside Portugal. This could result in missed deadlines, accumulating fines, or legal complications you're unaware of until they become serious problems.
Our tax representation is focused on receiving and forwarding Finanças correspondence, assisting with portal access, and ensuring you're notified of important deadlines. It does not include tax filing, accounting, or financial advice — for those services, we recommend consulting a tax specialist.

Protect Your Portuguese Tax Affairs

For just €67 per year, ensure every tax notice reaches you on time. No surprises, no missed deadlines, no stress.
