Frequently Asked Questions about NIF

In addition to the fees, are there any fees for issuing the NIF?

No. The tax authority does not charge any fee for issuing the TIN.

Will I receive a physical document?

Proof of the tax identification number that will be sent to you is an electronic document.

When is a representative needed?

When the applicant does not reside in Portugal, as a rule, it is necessary to have a representative who is a tax resident in Portugal.

Does the representation include representation for VAT purposes?

No. Representations for VAT purposes can be contracted separately and require an autonomous process.

By having the NIF as a non-resident do I have any tax obligations in Portugal or do I need to pay tax in Portugal?

For the simple fact of having a NIF as a non-resident, there is no obligation to declare or pay tax.

Can I replace my tax representative?

Yes, it is possible to replace your tax representative, through a request to be submitted to Finance.

If I need to have a tax representative, what happens if I no longer have one?

The Tax Authority will grant a deadline for you to present a representative, under penalty of your NIF becoming inactive.

Do I have the right to reside in Portugal with the NIF?

The NIF may be one of the necessary requirements for applying for a residence visa. There is no direct relationship between having the NIF and being able to legally live in Portugal.

Why do I need the NIF?

You will need the NIF to submit some visa applications; for carrying out certain commercial operations and contracting in Portugal; to open a bank account; to declare the beginning of professional activity in Portugal; among other situations.

Why do I need to be careful when choosing my representative?

The representative will be the bridge between you and the Tax Authority. You need to be sure that he is able to receive any and all communications on your behalf and inform you in a timely manner. You cannot use failure to communicate with your representative as an argument against the Tax Authority if you fail to comply with any obligation relating to which you were notified.

I’m a foreigner and I live in Portugal but I don’t have a residence permit/card, how can I request the NIF?

As a rule, you will have to apply for the NIF as a non-resident and, when you have the residence permit/card, update your address.

I’m Portuguese, I live in Portugal, but I don’t have a lease or proof of address. How do I request the NIF?

As a rule, you will have to apply for the NIF as a non-resident and, when you have proof of address, update your address.

Can a minor/child have a NIF?

Yes, the NIF can be assigned to both children/minors and adults. In the case of a child/minor, the power of attorney will mention the applicant’s data together with the data of the legal representatives. In this case, the power of attorney will be signed by the legal representatives.

Vivian Perfeito is AMAZING!!! We had two previous immigration attorneys who failed us miserably and we were ready to throw in the towel. Our Realtor, Bruno Silva recommended Vivian and we decided to give it one last shot. She exceeded expectations and seamlessly helped us obtain our D7 visa and residency card. She accompanied us to the appointment, spent time managing our difficult case and was kind, professional and lovely to work with. Vivian is a ROCK STAR, i would recommend her to anyone going through this process. She is very intelligent, organized, a good communicator, and answers emails quickly. Our only regret is not finding her a year ago!

I took a chance with going to see Vivian because I am hesitant about finding someone online. But, not knowing many people in PT, and after seeing Vivian speaking confidently and concisely on YouTube links and sharing knowledge generously, I made an appointment and went to see her about my current and future residency status. Vivian is a warm and intelligent lawyer, and gave me quality time, and quickly gained an insight into what would be the best way forward for me. We have just started the process but I feel confident she knows her stuff, and has my best interests at heart, a rare quality to find in any person.

Hello my name is Randy Rava. I decided to move to Portugal 🇵🇹. I found Vivian Perfeito on internet. She is worth every penny. Vivian was there for me every step of the way. Her fees are very low, she was always there for me and she always answered my emails and gave me good direction. She is very honest and kind. She put in much more time with me and helped me in many ways. If you want to immigrate to Portugal 🇵🇹 without the help of a lawyer it would be foolish because of the many mistakes that you would make that would cost you valuable time and money. I found Vivian Perfeito and she is a blessing because she knows exactly what to do at every point in the process, her fees are very reasonable and she is very honest and reliable. Without her knowledge of Portuguese law I would have made mistake after mistake and would never have even known it. I highly recommend Vivian Perfeito Advogada extrordinare the finest most skilled lawyer in all of Portugal.

So far I had one call with Dra. Vivian, and I could already see that she is a very nice person who is very knowledgable about her domain. She was able to answer all my questions as well as recommend other people to me who could help me. She actually cares about her client's cases and takes her time to study the case (via email) before joining the call to give the best experience. I highly recommend Dra. Vivian
My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Vivian for drafting and reviewing a rental contract. Vivian's warmth, responsiveness, and genuine friendliness made the entire process a breeze for both of us. She not only showed incredible professionalism but also made us feel like valued clients every step of the way. With Vivian's expertise and delightful personality, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Vivian to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you, Vivian, for your exceptional service!! :)

My wife and I made a decision to start our immigration process in October of 2023. Vivian was recommended to us around that same time.We both appreciate everything Vivian has helped us with through the process. We are now waiting on our visa. Vivian has proved very knowledgeable and without her help, we would have struggled. Her communication has always been excellent and never missed a meeting. We communicated in English with no problems. Her dedication and experience are highly rated by us.
Dr Vivian was incredibly kind to deal with. She is very confident and knows her job very well, preparing my emigration to Portugal. Her vast legal knowledge leaves me safe and confident in future decisions regarding the purchase or rental of property, avoiding the traps and tricks so common in this segment.
