Moving to Portugal is an attractive option for many expats, drawn by its charming landscapes, rich culture, and pleasant climate. However, relocating to Portugal also involves understanding and navigating the complexities of the Portuguese tax system. This guide aims to provide a comprehensive look at income tax in Portugal, especially for high earners, drawing on experiences and viewpoints shared by various expats.

Income Tax Rates and Brackets in Portugal

Portugal’s income tax system for residents is progressive, meaning tax rates increase with higher incomes. For 2023, these rates vary from 14.5% to 48%. This system ensures that individuals with higher incomes fall into higher tax brackets, leading to substantial tax liabilities for top earners. For example, a salary of €120,000 places a taxpayer in one of the higher brackets.

Every year thousands of Brits decide to escape from the capricious weather and move to Portugal. Algarve’s beaches and architecture dating back to the 1500s–1800s attract both visitors and expats to this breathtaking country. Regardless of how long you plan to spend in Portugal, you may need some basic information about its culture and customs. To save you time and effort, we prepared some information about Portuguese public holidays, car insurance and taxes, and the most popular supermarkets.

Public holidays in Portugal

Whether you are a visitor or an expat, you should take note of Portugal’s public holidays, as most businesses are closed on those days. Also, bear in mind, that, unlike many European countries, if a national holiday falls on Sunday, it is not observed on the next Monday.
