Introduction
Portugal's tax landscape for foreigners has changed dramatically in the past five years. There's a lot of noise in the press and on socials about different schemes and incentives. If you're already in Portugal or thinking of taking the plunge and moving, you should have an easy, clear and transparent grasp on the best tax setup for your needs.
This is why Touchdown offers a Tax Consultation. You get expert advice from a specialist in-house tax attorney on a 40 minute video call to have a detailed conversation about your tax planning.
These consultations are not free—and for a good reason. Free consultations often devolve into sales calls, providing little value. Touchdown prioritises trust, transparency and clarity. By investing in a consultation, you're guaranteed meaningful and expert advice that helps you make decisions with confidence.
Why are consultations paid?
Expert advice, not sales calls
Our consultations are designed to offer real solutions and advice—not push unnecessary services. Paying for this time ensures a productive, focused session tailored to your needs.
Access to certified Lawyers
You’ll speak with licensed immigration experts, tax attorneys, and relocation specialists who have extensive experience with Portuguese laws and processes.
Serious clients, meaningful discussions
Paid consultations filter out casual inquiries, allowing us to dedicate our time to those who are truly ready to move forward.
A step towards action
Every consultation provides clarity on your situation and a clear, actionable roadmap to achieve your goals—be it relocation or tax planning.
