Portugal Your business
Start your business in Portugal: Newsletter publisher
You publish a newsletter funded by readers, advertisers or affiliate commissions. To establish your activity in Portugal, describe these revenues separately from any services you sell alongside the publication. Your project should identify email tools, advertising contracts and editorial expenses, as well as ownership of the publication and accounts used to operate the business and receive payments.

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.
