Our story
EA Contabilidade was founded in 2021 with a simple aim: to build a modern, accessible accounting firm able to support Portuguese entrepreneurs and foreign investors alike as they develop their business in Portugal.
It started in Póvoa de Lanhoso. From the outset, technical leadership was entrusted to Silvana Gonçalves, a Certified Accountant and fluent French speaker.
As demand grew, the team was joined by Rita Silva, a Certified Accountant and native-level English speaker, and then by Elisabeth Rodrigues. At the end of 2024, the office moved to the heart of the historic centre of Braga.
The firm works with a network of specialist partners in law, insurance and credit. The team operates daily in Portuguese, French and English.
