Taxpayers have until Tuesday, March 31, to contest the value of expenses recorded by the tax authority for 2024 income. Residents should check the Portal das Finanças to verify that health, education, and general family expenses are correctly listed before the official tax filing period begins on April 1. This is the final opportunity to ensure all tax deductions (deduções à coleta) are accurately applied to the upcoming IRS return.

Context & Explainers

The Tax Portal (Portal das Finanças) is Portugal's official online service where individuals and businesses access tax records, file returns, and make payments. On 6 February 2026 the Tax and Customs Authority (Autoridade Tributária e Aduaneira or AT) used the portal to warn taxpayers about scam SMS messages falsely demanding payment to 'avoid seizure'; residents should ignore unsolicited payment links and check the portal or contact AT directly.
