Portugal is one of these countries that is extremely interesting to digital nomads and entrepreneurs. Many of our clients moved there, and many more are considering moving there in the future. Why wouldn't they? Portugal is a beautiful country with great weather and food.
But the question arises - Can you live in Portugal and pay no tax?
Have you heard of the Portuguese non-habitual residency program? Today we are going to discuss how exactly the NHR program (that was created in 2009.) works. This program lasts for 10 years, which means that you can take advantage of tax cuts for 10 years, after which you'd be taxed normally.
Can you get zero tax under this program? Well, it's not so straight forward - but it is possible!
We will try to explain how can this be achieved.
