ATENTION FOREIGN INVESTORS: Major Tax Changes for Property Purchases in Portugal

Planning to buy property in Portugal? New legislation may significantly impact your investment.

Portugal is introducing new tax measures affecting non-resident buyers of residential property.

Under the new framework, non-resident purchasers may become subject to a flat 7.5% Property Transfer Tax (IMT) when acquiring residential real estate in Portugal, potentially increasing acquisition costs compared to the current tax system.

In addition to IMT, buyers should also consider Stamp Duty and transaction-related costs.

These changes may have a substantial impact on:

✔️ International investors
✔️ Foreign buyers acquiring second homes
✔️ Individuals relocating to Portugal
✔️ Buyers structuring international real estate investments

Proper legal and tax planning is becoming more important than ever before making an investment decision.

⚠️ Certain exceptions and specific legal requirements may apply depending on each situation.

If you are considering buying property in Portugal, understanding the new rules before signing a reservation agreement or purchase contract could make a significant difference.

📩 Professional legal guidance before investing is no longer optional — it is strategic.
