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. This is not a technical accounting class. It is a practical session for founders who want to understand what matters, what to watch out for, and how to stay compliant with less stress. What you’ll walk away with → A clearer understanding of accounting and tax basics for companies in Portugal → Practical guidance on IVA, IRC, payroll, and Social Security for founders → A better sense of what to track, prepare, and ask your accountant → The top 5 accounting mistakes early-stage founders make and how to avoid them → A practical playbook for staying compliant as your company grows Who this is for This session is designed for founders, startup teams, freelancers, consultants, and small business owners who are starting or already running a company in Portugal. It is especially useful if you are pre-launch, recently incorporated, hiring your first team members, or trying to get more clarity on your accounting obligations. No accounting background is required. About the speaker Manuel Pina is the Co-founder and CEO of Tally, a modern accounting platform for SMEs in Portugal. Tally helps companies manage accounting in a faster and more accessible way, combining automation where it makes sense with support from certified accounting professionals where it matters. Manuel works closely with founders and growing companies on the accounting, tax, and compliance questions that matter most when starting and scaling a business in Portugal.
