Frequently asked questions

The questions we hear most often from clients moving to or working in Portugal.

I'm moving to Portugal as a freelancer. Can you help me get set up?

Yes, this is one of our specialities. We help you choose the right tax regime and understand your VAT, IRS and social security obligations from day one, with bookkeeping and filings in English.

Do you work with clients who don't speak Portuguese?

Yes. We provide full support in English — emails, meetings and documents explained clearly. Many of our clients are foreign entrepreneurs and freelancers living in Portugal.

How much does an accountant cost in Portugal?

Freelancers on simplified accounting start from €60 + VAT per month; companies on organised accounting start from €175 + VAT per month. The final price depends on your invoicing volume and tax regime: ask for a no-obligation quote.

What are 'recibos verdes'?

'Recibos verdes' (green receipts) is the common name for Portugal's self-employed invoicing system. If you freelance in Portugal, you'll issue these through the tax office portal — and we can handle the setup and ongoing obligations for you.

Can you help me decide between freelancing and opening a company?

Yes. In a one-to-one consulting session we compare both options for your specific situation — expected income, activity type, social security and tax impact — so you can make an informed decision.

How do I send you my documents?

Everything is digital: you upload documents through the TOC Online portal of the Order of Certified Accountants, with secure 24/7 access. No paperwork, no office visits needed.
