You build automation or AI solutions with a team and want to structure the agency in Portugal. Describe the founders, services sold and division of work. The project should distinguish commissioned development, maintenance and any proprietary products, specifying who owns the solutions and who bears their technical operating costs across the contracts the business would manage.

Before you incorporate
Registering as self-employed and incorporating a company are different routes. The choice depends on how your business actually operates. A Portuguese company alone does not determine your tax residence or the treatment of every source of income.
Information to gather
- Your country of residence and where you actually work.
- A description of the services or products you sell.
- Whether your customers are businesses or individuals, and their countries.
- Any shareholders, existing business structure and your planned timing.
