Rent from property located in Portugal is taxed in Portugal, even if you live abroad: rates of 10% to 25% depending on the rent and lease length, with deductible costs (IMI, service charges, maintenance). Double-taxation treaties prevent paying twice, but the Portuguese return (Anexo F) still has to be filed, and electronic receipts are the foundation of everything. Our guides cover each step.
Managing from abroad without surprises
- The receipts you issue on the Portuguese tax portal imported every month and attached to the right rent
- Alerts before every deadline: annual rent update, lease renewal, expiring documents
- Photographed inspections signed electronically, usable as evidence in a dispute
- One place for the paperwork: lease, receipts, invoices, correspondence

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a fiscal representative in Portugal?
EU residents are not obliged, though a fiscal point of contact is advisable. Outside the EU (UK, Switzerland, USA), appointing one is in principle required. Our non-resident landlord guide covers the cases.
Is the rent taxed in Portugal or where I live?
Portugal first: income from property located in Portugal is taxable there (Anexo F). Double-taxation treaties give you credit at home, but the Portuguese filing remains. When in doubt, ask a tax professional.
What exactly does the 12% management cover?
Tenant selection and vetting, an NRAU-compliant lease, monthly receipts filed electronically with the tax authority (once you authorise us on the tax portal), check-in and check-out inspections, incident handling and an online portal. Rent goes straight to your account, with no financial intermediation.
My property is not in Lisbon: what do you offer?
The software works for property anywhere in Portugal, in English, from €19/month. Full management is provided by Tagus Property and limited to the municipalities of Lisbon, Oeiras and Cascais, because we only take on what we can visit.
