The non-habitual resident tax scheme allows individuals, Portuguese and foreign citizens who wish to reside in Portugal, to benefit from a special status for a period of 10 years.

To benefit from this scheme, it is necessary that the person has not been a tax resident in Portugal in the last 5 years, obtains his habitual tax residence in Portugal and remains as a resident in the country for most of the year. The tax advantages are in respect of certain types of incomes and pensions obtained in Portugal or abroad.
