Portugal import
Customs and import context
Customs authority and filings
Imports are cleared by Portuguese Tax and Customs Authority (AT). The importer of record (or its broker) files the declaration; Anxin coordinates but does not act as importer.
- Registrations and filings are confirmed with the importer's customs broker.
Import taxes to expect by name: import VAT (IVA) and any customs duty. Rates and duties are confirmed by the importer's broker for the exact product classification.
Portugal is in the EU customs union: goods are cleared once under the Union Customs Code and can then move within the single market.
Languages and documents
Official or main business languages: Portuguese. Commercial invoice, packing list and battery descriptions should use the product names the importer will declare.
Local-language port names on file (confirm spelling on your documents): Leixoes: Porto de Leixões; Lisbon: Porto de Lisboa; Sines: Porto de Sines.
