Overview

We incorporate a Portuguese company (Lda or single-shareholder Unipessoal Lda) for you remotely, including the company’s tax number (NIPC) and 4 hours of support (email plus 2 scheduled calls). You do not need to travel — we handle the registration on your behalf. Government fees are passed through at cost: about €435 as standard (€75 name approval certificate + €360 registry incorporation), plus €75 if you need an urgent name approval. Running the company afterwards is priced separately and shown line by line: Company Secretary & Compliance €150/mo (required with our accounting), accounting from €160/mo, VAT declarations €270/quarter, the corporate tax return €990/year and a registered address €50/mo.

  • Entrepreneurs setting up an Lda or a single-shareholder Unipessoal Lda
  • Businesses expanding into Portugal that need a local entity
  • Owners who want incorporation handled by one team, with clear prices for running the company afterwards

What's Included

  • The company’s tax number (NIPC)

  • 4 hours of support (email plus 2 scheduled calls); beyond that €90/hour

Process & Timeline

  1. Prepare & collect

    We collect shareholder documents and NIFs, confirm the company name, activity (CAE) and registered address.

  2. We incorporate

    We handle the registration of the company remotely and obtain the company’s tax number (company NIF).

  3. Hand over & set up

    We deliver your incorporation documents and company tax number (NIPC), and start onboarding any ongoing company services you have chosen.

Total TimeRemote incorporation typically takes 1–2 weeks once all shareholder documents and NIFs are in order. Opening a business bank account is a separate step whose timing rests with the bank’s own compliance — digital/neo-banks can open within days, while traditional banks can take considerably longer — so it sits outside the incorporation timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. We incorporate the company remotely on your behalf. You provide the shareholder documents, NIFs and company details, and we handle the registration.

An Lda is a limited company with two or more shareholders; a Unipessoal Lda is the single-shareholder version. We set up whichever fits your structure.

No. Government fees are passed through at cost, without mark-up: about €435 as standard (€75 for the name approval certificate and €360 for the registry incorporation), plus €75 if you need an urgent name approval (€150 instead of €75).

Yes — by law a Portuguese company needs a certified accountant and a registered address from day one. These are separate services, each shown as its own line: accounting from €160/mo, Company Secretary & Compliance €150/mo (required with our accounting), VAT declarations €270/quarter, the corporate tax return (Modelo 22 + IES) €990/year and a registered address €50/mo.

We help you set it up and point you to suitable options, but the account is opened by the bank and its timing is the bank’s — digital/neo-banks (such as Revolut) can be quick, while traditional banks’ compliance checks can take considerably longer. We keep this separate from the incorporation so the company timeline stays predictable.

Yes, shareholders generally need a personal NIF for the incorporation. The company’s own tax number (NIPC) comes with the incorporation, but a shareholder’s personal NIF is not included: if you do not have one yet, we can obtain it first as a separate service (€390 per person), then proceed with the company.
