The status of Portuguese Non-Habitual Residents allows all those who qualify for tax residents in Portugal the opportunity to receive tax-free income, both in Portugal and in the country of origin of the remuneration. This status is guaranteed for a period of 10 years.
One of the main objectives of this scheme is to attract people and their families to live in Portugal, offering them tax-benefited conditions. As a result, Non-Habitual Residents can see their savings grow, collect their salaries in a advantageous tax regime, move their assets from tax exemptions, register their wealth without inheritance tax, in particular on behalf of their children or the spouse, and enjoy their retirement pensions without paying any taxes.
