Find out answers to frequently asked questions about life and investment in Portugal
What steps should I take before my NHR status expires to mitigate future taxes?
It is important to seek early professional advice well before the end of your NHR tax status, ideally in years 1-7. Consider restructuring your income and assets as well as optimising non-Portugal derived pension withdrawals to minimise tax exposure. It is important to consult with a cross-border tax and wealth management professional. Portugal Pathways can arrange an initial discovery call with you to better understand your personal situation and give you clarity and peace of mind as early as possible within your 10-year NHR tax status life, as this is key.
What protection and security should I expect to receive from my foreign currency transactions?
Your funds are protected through our global recognised e-money partners, who are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Additionally, your funds are stored in your unique multi-currency account, and held in secure accounts. This structure guarantees and adds multiple layers of security to safeguard your money during foreign currency transactions.
What is the Portugal D7 visa, and who is eligible for it?
The D7 visa scheme grants residency in Portugal to non-EU citizens and access to Schengen member countries as well as rights to education and healthcare. Eligible visa applicants must have a clean criminal record and be able to provide sufficient financial means to support themselves and their families.
What is the weather like in Portugal through the seasons?
When considering the weather, it's also worth noting that Portugal boasts one of Europe's highest amounts of sunshine, with an average of 2,500-3,200 hours of sunlight annually. The sea temperature can also be a factor for those who enjoy water activities. Sea temperatures range from 14°C (57°F) in the winter to 20°C (68°F) in the summer, depending on the region. Although a small country, Portugal offers various climates due to its geographical positioning and topography.
What is the Non-Habitual Residency (NHR) tax regime in Portugal?
The Non-Habitual Residency (NHR) tax regime came into effect in 2009 and is a tax regime designed for non-residents or individuals who become tax residents in Portugal. The NHR tax regime offers 0% tax on non-Portugal derived passive income such as dividends and royalties as well as 10% on pensions 10 years. The NHR tax regime however, will end to new entrants on the 31st of December. The Portuguese government announced in their state budget for 2024, that anyone who has applied to secure NHR tax status in Portugal by December 31st, 2023, must be able to prove they have taken serious steps to prove intent to reside and pay tax in Portugal under NHR tax regime.
