Portugal - Tax Guide for Freelance Contractors
Our tax guide for freelance contractors working in Portugal
Capital Consulting can provide a full range of payroll services in Portugal.
The individual is employed by Capital Consulting and income is paid in the form of salary, allowances and expenses, the proportions depending on individual circumstances.
Salary, Tax & Social Security
Capital Consulting will deduct tax and social security at source on a PAYE basis and payments are made to the relevant authorities on the employee’s behalf. The taxable amount may be reduced by offsetting certain business expenses.
Capital Consulting will discuss your personal circumstances with you and help you to minimise your tax and social security liabilities, within the bounds of Portuguese legislation.
Tax Returns
Income is managed tax efficiently, not just in Portugal but also in any other country where there may be a liability. A tax return is filed each year in Portugal with advice and assistance from Capital Consulting, who will also provide help with filing tax returns elsewhere, if required.
