THE ESSENTIALS
If there’s one thing you need in Portugal,
it’s your NIF.
DO I REALLY NEED A PORTUGUESE NIF?
The Numero de Identificação Fiscal (NIF) is the Portuguese tax number required to open a bank account, rent and/or purchase a property, register for utilities, and many more essential transactions.
It’s the one thing that you will need for almost all transactions in Portugal regardless of whether you’re a resident or not.
Here’s how to order your Portuguese NIF from anywhere in the world:
