Updated January 22, 2023.
There are 3 types of pricing (detailed further below):
1. fixed fee services
Our BASIC visa service is for application reviews booked directly in the review calendar, skipping the consultation calendar entirely. Note that NIFs and bank account openings are not included in the BASIC service.
Our STANDARD and PREMIUM visa packages include NIFs, bank account opening, preparation for the SEF appointments, plus our most commonly-requested services. Both visa packages must be initiated with a call booked through the consultation calendar to determine eligibility and to avoid overbooking the team. This fee is deducted from the final invoice if either the STANDARD or PREMIUM service is contracted.
2. AD-HOC SERVICE
Please contact us to request our current rate sheet for assistance with home searches and post-landing services such as booking and attending appointments with clients at SEF, Finanças, IMT, Junta de Freguesia, Centro da Saúde et al.
3. PER-HOUR BILLING
Per-hour billing depends on the specific service and whether the service is handled by a junior (25€/hr), senior (60€/hr), or consultant (95€/hr). Contract reviews by our lawyers are 150€ per contract for the general public (visa clients pay discounted rates). Please contact us to inquire.
Fiscal Representation for the NIF (Portuguese tax number) is only offered as part of the STANDARD and PREMIUM visa packages.
We do not offer Fiscal Representation as a separate service. However, we can provide referrals for obtaining NIFs remotely. We do not receive compensation for referrals.
Bank account openings are only offered as part of the STANDARD and PREMIUM visa packages. It is not offered as a service on its own.
