Portugal Your business
Start your business in Portugal: Video production agency
You produce videos with a team and contributors brought in for particular shoots. To establish an agency in Portugal, describe the founders, commissions and production locations. Explain purchased services, equipment rentals and post-production: a project filmed in Portugal and a shoot organised abroad need different operational descriptions within the business you are preparing to establish.

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.
