Service: Get set up with recibos verdes and with taxes
I've been working with Tiago from Atlantic Advisory for about four years now, and he's been a huge help. I reached out to him initially because I needed assistance with recibos verdes and managing my taxes for the company I work for. Tiago takes care of all that stuff—making sure I'm set up properly and handling every aspect of my taxes. The financial reports he provides are always detailed and clear, which is great because he makes sure I fully understand everything. While his English is excellent, we sometimes chat in Portuguese, which helps me practice the language too. What really stands out to me is how proactive Tiago is—he doesn't just do what's asked; he also offers advice on tax savings without me having to prompt him. Based on my positive experience, I've already recommended him to two friends and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him again.

Service: Personal finances and taxes
Vanessa at E-Golden has been an absolute gem handling my personal finances and taxes. It's like she's become part of the family. She's given me proactive advice on tax-saving strategies, clearly outlining what's within legal boundaries – it gives me peace of mind. I trust her completely; it's like I can rely on her with my eyes closed. Honestly, her rates are incredibly fair for the quality of service she provides; if anything, she could charge more. Any issues I've had were resolved promptly. Every meeting is a pleasure, punctual and greeted with a smile and genuine kindness.

Service: Account for my company in the importation industry
Nuno Torres has been handling the accounting for my importation business, and honestly, he's proven himself to be an expert in the industry. His reports are clear and well-explained, plus he's always offering proactive tax-saving advice. I'm impressed with how he resolves specific issues swiftly and stays current with regulatory changes. Communication with Nuno is top-notch; a call or message via telephone, WhatsApp, or email gets a prompt response, and I've never needed to follow up for clarification. What sets him apart is his availability—even on Sundays—and his quick replies within minutes. He's gone out of his way numerous times to accommodate meetings that fit my schedule. When comparing offers from various accountants, Nuno provided the best deal without compromising on professionalism or expertise; he's polite and well-spoken as is his team. In terms of service quality and dedication, Nuno matches or exceeds any accountant I've worked with before. As long as he's willing to handle my accounts, I see no reason to go anywhere else.

Service: Professional company's accounting needs
I've been relying on Gonçalo from GPRM - Contabilidade e Consultoria Lda for over a year now for my professional company's accounting needs. He's been fantastic at answering all my questions and handling the occasional invoice. In my opinion, he's the best accountant you can find in Portugal—head and shoulders above the juniors at his company. Gonçalo is incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and pays great attention to detail, guiding you through every step of the process. My wife has started using his services as well, and we both appreciate how responsive and available he is whenever we need him.

Service: Applying for NHR, getting a golden visa and relocating from London to Portugal
I've been using Moviinn worldwide community for about a year now, and my experience has been really positive. I first got in touch with them when applying for the NHR, and Victoria was like my personal solicitor. She was on top of everything; we applied in December [2023](ct+tel://2023), and she managed to sort it all out smoothly. There were multiple conversations as we explored whether to register as a digital nomad or go for the golden visa. Victoria even handled all my banking details with care. Miguel also deserves a shout-out; we had an in-depth, 2-hour chat about whether to buy or rent land in Portugal, which helped clarify a lot for me. I've already recommended them to friends because they're that good – especially Victoria; she's truly a gem in this process!

Service: Accountant and NIF services
Leonel has been instrumental in preparing me and my business for our move to Portugal. He's taken the time to ensure everything is completed correctly, helping me obtain my NIF and guiding me through Portuguese regulations. What impresses me most is his proactive approach and patience; he walks you through each step with dedication, making even complex tasks seem manageable. Now, he's also assisting my parents with their more intricate portfolio effectively. Despite being very busy, once you have his attention, he's incredibly patient and human-centric. Leonel is not just an accountant; he's a relatable individual who genuinely cares about his clients' needs. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of accounting services—his support has made the transition process much smoother for us. Can't wait to start this new chapter in Portugal!

How does it work?

Locallista is a special website that was built by expats for expats. Once you join, your life here in Portugal will never be the same. Read more below about how it all works.

  • We've curated a list of trusted service providers, all recommended by expats living in the Lisbon metro area. Each provider has undergone a thorough vetting process, pledged to offer excellent service and fair pricing, and is reviewed after every job they complete for Locallista users.
    If a provider's score falls below a certain threshold, they are removed from our platform. Listings are displayed solely based on their review scores, ensuring no provider is given preference over another.
    When you find a provider that suits your needs, you can contact them directly—just send a WhatsApp or make a call to arrange details. Payments are made directly to the provider; you'll never pay anything through our website.

  • Explore over 150 service categories and search by language or service location. Our 400+ providers collectively speak 22 different languages.

  • Yes. Locallista is free for people who moved to Portugal or are planning to move.

  • We build Locallista for foreigners who are moving or moved to Portugal. The platform is not designed for Portuguese locals, and this is why you will need to be approved before you can use it (or you could be invited by another expat with access).

  • Our team reviews requests in real time and typically approves them within minutes.

  • We do our best to make sure we have enough service providers in each category and we are putting our weight to make sure that businesses respond to our users promptly and with priority.
