Startup Accounting Made Simple | With Manuel Pina from Tally
18:00Online
Starting a company in Portugal comes with a lot of questions. What taxes apply? When do you need to charge IVA? How does payroll work if you are a founder? What does your accountant actually need from you each month? And what mistakes can become expensive later if you ignore them now? In this practical Founders Meetup, Manuel Pina from Tally will break down the accounting and tax essentials every founder should understand when setting up and growing a company in Portugal. You will get a clear overview of the Portuguese business landscape, including Iva (Vat), Irc, payroll, Social Security for founders, bookkeeping basics, and the top 5 mistakes early-stage founders make, so you can avoid them from day one.
