Transfer Pricing

We develop innovative, tax-efficient strategies.

After 20 years since the first publication of Transfer Pricing regulations in Portugal (December 21, 2001), in 2021 the legislation was revised, bringing Portuguese legislation closer to international practice in this area, particularly concerning the OECD's BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) program.

The increasing internationalisation of business, the complexity of multinational groups, as well as the heightened scrutiny of Tax Authorities regarding intra-group transactions, has made transfer pricing one of the major causes for significant tax contingencies.

Our Transfer Pricing team comprises specialists well positioned to advise you on the planning, implementation, documentation e defense of transfer pricing policies aligned with your financial, operational and tax business goals.
