Taxes for Expats and Residents
What Will You Actually Pay in Portugal?
Becoming a Portuguese tax resident changes how, where and when your income is taxed. It affects your pension, your investments, your foreign company and the return you file each year.
We map your position before it turns into a filing problem, and keep you compliant once you are here.
Your annual IRS return, the reporting of foreign income and the deadlines attached to both. We prepare and file your return, and deal with the tax authority in Portuguese so you do not have to.
Your first tax year in Portugal starts the day you arrive, not on 1 January, and it comes with a calendar that does not wait for you to settle in: residence registration on arrival, the IFICI application by 15 January of the following year…
The United States taxes you wherever you live, and Portugal does not treat an LLC the way the IRS does. We work through that mismatch, the double taxation treaty and what your existing structure really costs you once you are resident here.
