NIF, more commonly referred to as simply “Contribuinte” stands for “Número de Identificação Fiscal” which translates as the Number of tax identification, is the first step and the cornerstone for any economic activity in Portugal. It is required for both residents and non-residents of Portugal who wish to open a bank account, do any kind of deals with real estate, acquire a residence permit, contract an internet provider, etc. Hence, if you are considering moving to Portugal, conducting any kind of business activities, or even simply staying here for prolonged periods of time - registering NIF is a priority.
Generally, you should anticipate receiving your NIF within one day. However, it's important to acknowledge that the exact timeframe primarily relies on the processing speed of the AT Finance office. There have been instances where clients have experienced delays of up to one week before receiving their NIF.
No, NIF does not have an expiration date and is issued “for life”. In case you lose your NIF, you will not be simply assigned a new number, you will have to start a new process from scratch and get a brand new document.
The document is issued by “Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira” (Tax and Customs Authority) and contains all tax and financial information of its holder. For non residents it is required to have a local tax representative.
Required documents for NIF for minors:
- Scan the child's passport.
- Birth certificate translated to English or Portuguese.
- Scans of both parents' passports.
- NIF certificate of at least one parent.
In 100% of cases, we send NIFs online in a PDF format. As soon as we get your document - we will send it to the email and WhatsApp you provided us.
Also, when you apply, you can add mail delivery.
As part of our services, we provide personal counseling to about 3000+ individual inquiries monthly for Migration, Travel, Study, and Work Visas.
