Translations of all types of text from and into PortugueseWe will translate all types of texts into or from Portuguese – from a user’s manual to a newspaper article, to a legal text to a sports review. There is no document that our translators cannot handle. We work with legal, medical, literary, and technical translators. Our database also includes translation specialists who handle the most diverse subject matters. For example, consider art and culture, nature and the environment, sustainability and the climate, transportation, a second home, and others. Our large network ensures that we have an expert translator in your field. This includes certified or notarised translations of business documents and official licenses and certificates (such as birth and marriage certificates). We can translate these into Portuguese or from Portuguese into English or another language. They are then suitable for presentation to any official body, including the UKVI.

Business operations in Portugal
The bureaucracy in Portugal has decreased to some degree since the country joined the EU, but it’s still just as costly to handle necessary formalities there as in other countries. For specific trade and professional groups, you must prove your skills with the appropriate diplomas or certificates.
Portuguese proficiency is also required in many professions; one must be certified by taking a test. Lawyers, for example, may not work without language skills. As a foreigner, you need an identification number to receive an income in Portugal.
When establishing a company, you should first decide on your company’s corporate structure. You can run the company independently and be liable for your own assets, or you can set up a public limited company called a "Sociedade por Quotas."
As an independent business owner, you can either pay the minimum contribution of 25.4% or increased contributions of 32%. The minimum level of protection offers the most important social security, while the additional contributions provide added family assistance and support in the event of illness.
The contribution base is the national minimum wage. The employer can even choose the amount of the base himself (ranging from the minimum up to 12 times the amount of the minimum wage).
Employees must also be registered with Social Security, as contributions are calculated based on full income, including bonuses and subsidies.
The maximum income tax in Portugal is 42%, while the maximum corporate tax rate is only 25%. In the special zone of Madeira, entrepreneurs can benefit from especially low tax rates if they meet certain criteria. These tax rates serve primarily to create additional jobs, as wages are completely tax deductible.
To fulfil all of the requirements, you will need assistance from a tax consultant.
To ensure that nothing stands in the way of your business activities in Portugal, we will take care of the professional translation of your documents. While we translate texts in the more common subject areas like medicine, law, and technology, we also have translators well-versed in more specialised areas, such as biochemistry and food technology.
Our project managers possess years of experience and always choose the best translator for your texts from our large network of professional native speakers.
If you’re planning an extensive project, it might be worth creating a Translation Memory System. This allows you to strengthen your corporate identity with consistent terminology and simplify your internal processes.
