We are very experienced in the Non Habitual Resident regime which previously allowed qualifying retirees to become resident in the country and receive their pensions tax-free for 10 years; however, this was recently increased to 10% from zero, in 2020.?
Pensions
We have had clients from more than 10 countries who have become tax-resident in Portugal and benefited from 0% tax on their pensions (although this was increased to 10% from zero, in 2020). Even though we have practical, hands-on know-how of the regime, we are not authorised to provide tax or similar advice and so we would always, after an initial analysis of your requirements and if the situation warranted it, refer you to one of our panel of tax and retirement specialists, to ensure that you have at your fingertips years of experience in the field of retirement to Portugal, and all its associated implications.
We specialise in assisting clients with buying a property or those who need renewable annual rental contracts, which by law must be a minimum of 183 days to comply with NHR requirements but which can also, based on requirements from governments in other countries, be negotiated for longer lets.
