Not sure which service you need?

For taxpayers who have missed filing deadlines or need to submit multiple Portuguese tax returns together.

How it works

Our approach ensures that all income streams are correctly classified and documented, including:

- Employment income

- Self-employment / profits

- Pensions

- Investment income

This service incorporates our interpretation of the latest Portuguese case law and our experience handling tax matters specific to foreign residents.

What’s included

Careful handling of late or multiple submissions, considering the additional procedural and compliance considerations that arise in these situations.

Fees

€800 + VAT for each late submission. For late submissions or cases where multiple returns need to be filed at once, additional time and careful handling may be required. In these circumstances, the complexity and effort involved can exceed what is covered by the standard fee.

Tailored quote (when needed)

Because each late or multiple-filing situation is different, we may provide a tailored quote based on the specifics of your case. This ensures your returns are handled accurately and fully compliant. If you prefer not to proceed after receiving the quote, a full refund will be provided.

Annual Portuguese tax return preparation designed specifically for expats.

Who this is for

This is one of our most popular services and is intended for expats with income streams that may include:

- Employment income

- Profits

- Pensions

- Investment income

How it works

While the Portuguese tax return form itself may appear straightforward, the real challenge lies in the correct classification of income — particularly for foreign residents.

This service is designed specifically to address expat taxation under the NHR scheme, while also covering income that falls outside of NHR. It incorporates our interpretation of the most recent case law and our experience dealing with common income streams of foreign residents.

What’s included and who needs to file

This service covers 95% of standard Portuguese tax returns.

You need to file a tax return if:

- You were a tax resident in Portugal during 2025, or

- You were not a tax resident but had income in Portugal (such as from a property located in Portugal)

Complex cases

In special situations where the return is particularly complex — for example, multiple capital gains or crypto transactions, more than two countries involved, or other issues considered complex — we may need to depart from the standard fixed fee. You will always be notified in advance.

A coordinated tax return package for Portugal and the United Kingdom.

Who this is for

This combined package is ideal if, in the same year:

- You are tax resident in Portugal and still have UK income or reporting obligations; or

- You are tax resident in the UK and have income or reporting obligations in Portugal

How it works

Both returns are prepared within the same group, allowing our Portugal and UK teams to coordinate:

- Treatment of income

- Application of double tax treaty rules

- Foreign tax credits

- Cross-border reporting positions

This approach helps avoid contradictions between the two filings.

What’s included

- Preparation and filing of one 2025 Portuguese tax return

- Preparation and filing of one 2025/26 UK personal tax return

- Coordination between our Portugal and UK teams to ensure consistent treatment

- Basic review of cross-border issues (e.g. where income is reportable in both countries and how it should appear)

Complex cases

Some situations may require additional work and be subject to a separate quote, including:

- Corporate and business tax returns

- Complex or high-volume capital gains / crypto transactions

- Complex coordination requiring detailed tax estimates for a third country

- Tax planning or strategy work

- Amendments to prior-year returns or last-minute filings

If your situation falls outside the standard scope, we will review your case and provide a transparent revised quote. You can then decide whether to proceed or receive a full refund of any payments made.

Preparation and filing of your 2025 tax returns in both Portugal and the U.S., coordinated within Fresh Legal Group.

Who this is for

For individuals who, in the same year, have tax filing obligations in both Portugal and the United States.

How it works

Your Portuguese and U.S. tax returns are prepared in coordination to ensure consistent treatment of income and cross-border reporting.

The U.S. return is filed by a consultant and, although closely aligned, you will work with two different teams.

What’s included

- Preparation and filing of one 2025 Portuguese tax return

- Preparation and filing of one 2025 U.S. tax return

- FBAR filing up to 5 accounts

- Most standard tax return situations in both countries

For one person or a couple?

The price is for one tax return:

- If you are eligible to file jointly, it applies to a joint return

- If not, it applies to an individual return

Please note the difference: Portugal allows common law partners to file jointly, the U.S. only allows married couples to file jointly

Who needs to file?

Portugal
You need to file if:

- You were a tax resident in Portugal during 2025, or

- A U.S. citizen

- A green card holder
