Hack Portugal

HackPortugal is the independent reference for living in Portugal — guides verified against official sources, no fluff.

580+ step-by-step guides covering:
• Residence permits and visas: D7, D8, Tech Visa, CPLP, family reunification, EU citizens
• Documents: NIF, NISS, Cartão de Cidadão
• Naturalisation: by residence, marriage, descent
• Taxes: IRS, IFICI, IMI, IVA, recibos verdes, ZFM Madeira
• Healthcare: SNS registration, family doctor, taxas moderadoras, parental leave
• Housing: rental contracts, property purchase, mortgage
• Banking: account opening, ATM rules, MB WAY
• Daily life: parking, transit passes, recycling, knife sharpening, fish markets, language exchanges
• Country-specific paths: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Brazil, USA, UK, EU

Every guide cites the official source — AIMA, Portal das Finanças, SNS, IRN, DRE, IMT. Sensitive guides (visas, taxes, nationality) require at least one government source.

Smart on-device search across every guide. Powered by Apple's NLEmbedding — fully private, no data leaves your phone.

Live content delivery: new laws and rule changes appear in the app within hours, no app update required.

Personalised by your citizenship (CPLP / EU / third country / Portuguese) and status (planning, just arrived, resident, applying, citizen) — you only see guides relevant to you.

Bookmarks for offline reading. Interface in Portuguese, English and Russian.

Disclaimer: HackPortugal is a reference, not legal, tax, or immigration advice. Independent — no affiliation with AIMA, the Portuguese government, or any official entity. Always verify with the official source before acting.

Made by people living in Portugal, for people moving to Portugal.
