Opportunities for real estate investment, accompanied by special tax regimes, make Portugal a prominent country in this field. Whether for housing or for investment, Portugal has established itself as one of the most attractive markets in Europe for the purchase of real estate.

PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

Once you have identified a property, you must consider the restrictions applicable to the golden visa or for local accommodation. This is followed by proper legal Due Diligence and financing (if applicable). It is necessary to take into account the tax arrangements applicable to permanent housing, recovery of leased premises, long-term leases, purchase and sale for resale, local accommodation, etc.

The pre-contract purchase and sale agreement must reflect the conditions of the property and protect the parties involved from unforeseen events. With the execution of the deed, the property is transferred and a municipal property transfer tax is levied, plus stamp duty, and the transaction must be registered with the authorities.

GOLDEN VISAS

The so-called “golden visas” are residence permits for investment. Applicants may carry out investment business individually or through a company incorporated in Portugal or in an EU Member State with a permanent establishment in Portugal, provided that the quantitative and temporal requirements are met.

NHR

In 2009, Portugal introduced tax arrangements for “Non-Habitual Residents” (NHR), with the aim of persuading highly qualified professionals, pensioners and high net worth individuals to live in the country, offering special tax conditions for specific types of income.

The benefits of NHR status depend on the requirements set out in Portuguese law. Most depend on the specific taxation rules determined in the double taxation agreements signed by Portugal and are related to tax exemptions, royalties, dividends and interest, capital gains from the sale of securities, real estate income and pension income.
