Taxes & Networking

Join us for a structured workshop focused entirely on investment taxes in Portugal and how to build a more tax-efficient investment strategyA practical workshop designed to help women understand investment taxes in Portugal; from capital gains and dividends to declaring foreign investments and building a more tax-efficient long-term investment strategy. Many women invest through platforms and brokers but still feel unsure about what needs to be declared, which documents they need, how their investments are taxed, or how taxation can affect their overall returns.

During this workshop, we will break down investment taxation in Portugal in a simple, structured and practical way; helping you understand the taxation of capital gains and dividends, the documents and information you need to keep, how foreign brokers and investments are handled, common mistakes to avoid, and the principles behind building a more tax-efficient investment strategy.

The session will also include networking and open discussion with other women interested in financial growth, investing and long-term financial independence.

No previous investing or tax knowledge required.
