Portugal Tax Codes

Tax codes determine how much tax is paid on each transaction line item. For NetSuite to calculate correct values on transaction records and tax reports, make sure that the tax codes for Portugal are set up correctly.

Important:

To be able to set the correct properties for the Portugal tax codes, you need to install the NetSuite International Tax Reports SuiteApp.

For more information about tax codes, see Creating Tax Codes and Portugal Tax Code Properties and Fiscal Space.

Tax Code Table for Portugal

The following tables show the tax properties required to correctly generate the tax reports provided by the International Tax Reports SuiteApp. The tax code names or letters used on the following tables are suggested names or default system preference. You can rename the tax codes. Tax reports identify transactions by looking at the tax code properties, not the tax code names.

On the New Tax Code or Edit Tax Code page, check the boxes of the properties that apply to the tax code. For more information about tax code properties, see Tax Code Properties.

For information about notional rates in EU B2B transactions and VAT reports, see EU Notional VAT.
