About JPA Portugal - Consultores, S.A.

Based in Porto with a second office in Lisbon, this Portuguese member of the JPA International network of accounting and audit firms combines local statutory accounting with cross-border support. Its certified accountants handle bookkeeping and periodic reporting, while the tax team covers corporate matters and individual regimes. A notable part of its work concerns foreign businesses: it acts as tax representative for overseas companies for VAT and staffing purposes in Portugal, and it assists international groups that are entering the Portuguese market or expanding elsewhere through its network contacts. Individual clients are advised on the non-habitual resident regime, short-term rental rules for non-residents who own property, and golden visa questions. The site is mainly in Portuguese, with some English-language network material, and describes a multilingual team without naming the languages.
