There are many situations in which Portuguese citizens find themselves working abroad, paying their taxes and making the corresponding social security contributions in the country where they live. Unfortunately, in Portugal there is a phenomenon known as double taxation, in which the Portuguese taxpayer is also required to pay taxes on the same or other income.

This tax is often levied incorrectly, sometimes due to poor application of the conventions, where they exist, signed between Portugal and other countries. This phenomenon consequently results in incalculable losses for Portuguese emigrants who, as a result of automatic seizures by the Ministry of Finance, see their assets (buildings, land, vehicles, bank balances, etc.) seized.

Castilho Internacional Law Firm has therefore created a Tax Support service for Portuguese emigrants, with the aim of defending Portuguese citizens from these and similar situations with the tax authorities. Through the means of defending taxpayers, we help citizens in their dealings with the tax authorities, avoiding the violation of their rights and the consequent damage.
