Company formation in Portugal

Incorporation is handled by a partner solicitadora — a regulated Portuguese legal professional entitled to incorporate companies. EA Contabilidade collects the shareholder and company details through a full form, passes the file to the solicitadora, and then handles the RCBE, Segurança Social registration, the NISS and opening a bank account.

How long does it take?

Using Empresa na Hora (Portugal’s same-day incorporation procedure) with a pre-approved company name, the company can be incorporated the same day. If a Certificado de Admissibilidade is needed from the RNPC, the timing depends on that body.

Deadlines that depend on public bodies are never guaranteed.

What is the minimum share capital?

Legally, €1 per shareholder in an LDA (the Portuguese private limited company). In practice we advise setting capital that matches your real cash needs and the credibility banks and suppliers expect.

What EA handles after incorporation

  • RCBE — the beneficial ownership register;
  • Segurança Social registration and the NISS;
  • activity registration with the tax authority;
  • support opening a bank account;
  • choosing certified invoicing software.

What does the package cost?

Incorporation is carried out by Cristiana Carneiro Faria, Solicitadora (professional licence no. 7728), the firm’s partner.

TODO-AVOCATE: the incorporation package price is missing. It will be added as soon as the firm sets it.
