The Portuguese NIF is a number residents need for most of their day-to-day operations. If you're planning a medium- or long-term stay in Portugal, you need to apply for one. On the Internet, you can find out all you need to know about the advantages of this number and how to apply for it. That said, the price of this precious number remains unknown.

Paying at the Portuguese consulate in your country

If you're not yet in Portugal, you won't be able to go to a local finance office to apply. The solution in this case is to access the government's online portal. That said, if you're not totally at ease with the Internet, you can go to the Portuguese consulate in your country to apply. In this case, you'll have to pay between €10 and €15 for the NIF. So it's almost free of charge.

Paying if you go through a third party

To give yourself the best chance of obtaining your NIF in the shortest possible time, we recommend that you use a third-party service provider. You must, however, pay for their service. Fees can vary from a few dozen to over €200. This will depend on the charges applied by the agency in question and the desired delivery time.
