Accountants and corporate service providers in Albufeira

Albufeira, a resort town on the Algarve coast, has three accounting practices that take on work for foreign owners. Two of the three say that foreign clients are a particular focus, so this is a place to find a local contact rather than a wide choice.

All three are small practices, and the earliest founding year stated is 1998. Each handles accounting, tax compliance and payroll, and each offers VAT returns.

Firms in Albufeira

What the Albufeira firms show

The industries named are small and medium businesses, hospitality and tourism, healthcare clinics and real estate, which fits a coastal town built around visitors and second homes. The client groups include foreign residents, non-resident taxpayers, new resident entrepreneurs, foreign real estate investors, companies with foreign capital and expats on the non-habitual resident regime. Among entity types, firms name the sole trader, the single-member private limited company and the private limited company (Lda).

Company formation and residency or visa help are each offered by one of the three. Audit, bank account assistance, corporate secretarial work and virtual office services are not offered by any. If your plan needs the company incorporated and a bank account opened, ask early who handles each step.

Portuguese is offered by all three firms and English by one, so a founder who needs English throughout has a narrow choice here.
