Eligibility for Non-Habitual residency status
Non-Habitual Residence (NHR) Tax Advice
The Portuguese Government first introduced Non-Habitual Residency (NHR) in 2009 in order to offer a tax break for individuals who move to Portugal and work in a ‘high value added’ profession such as a scientific or specialist technical role.
NHR residents can benefit from a 20% flat income tax rate for the first 10 years of residency and those who are retirees and expats may also benefit from the scheme with foreign income.
