What is a Portugal NIF?+

NIF stands for Número de Identificação Fiscal. It is the tax identification number used by individuals and companies for banking, property, contracts and tax in Portugal.

Do I need to visit Portugal?+

Not necessarily. You can ask Bizvee to act through a local representative, or you can attend a Finanças office yourself in Lisbon, Porto or another location.

How long does it take?+

Most NIFs are issued within a few working days of us receiving complete documents. Complex corporate cases may take slightly longer.

Is €225 the full price?+

Yes for a standard personal or non-resident NIF. It covers preparation, filing and support. Any government fee is paid separately and is usually minimal.

Can a company get a NIF through Bizvee?+

Yes. Corporate NIFs for Portuguese companies, branches or foreign entities are also available — contact us if you are incorporating a Portuguese company.

Do I need a Portuguese address?+

No. For non-residents we can use a correspondence address and the representative details are handled on our side.
