    What company domiciliation means in Portugal

    Every Portuguese company needs a registered office (sede social): the legal address that appears in the commercial registry, on invoices and in communications with the tax authority. Domiciliation lets you use a professional business address for this purpose without renting an office.

    It is the most common choice for foreign founders who are setting up remotely, for Startup Visa and HQA visa applicants, and for small teams that work remotely but need a stable legal address in Portugal.

    What you need to set up

    • A Portuguese tax number (NIF) for each shareholder and manager.
    • The company name certificate and articles of association.
    • A domiciliation agreement covering the registered office address.
    • An accountant (contabilista certificado), required for most companies.

    Why domicile with Incubou
