Please note that as of 1 January 2023, PDF invoices will no longer suffice and companies will have to comply with the legislation on electronic invoicing. This also applies to foreign companies registered for VAT in Portugal. This new postponement to 31 December 2022 gives companies more time to comply with e-invoicing in Portugal.
This measure does not prevent companies from using certified electronic invoicing software now.
The Portuguese Tax Administration provides a list of certified e-invoicing software.
Companies can also publish their own electronic invoicing software, but this will have to be certified by the tax authorities.
For more information, please contact our experts who will be able to put you in touch with various certified software publishers.
