What is NHR, or Non-Habitual Residency, in Portugal?
It was created in 2009, and in 2021 it also became available for non-Portuguese residents.
It has many benefits:
1. Tax benefits are granted to Non-Habitual Residents for a period of 10 years
2. No inheritance tax in Portugal for direct family members (this is not NHR specific but still makes the system attractive)
3. Taxation of only 10% in pensions obtained and paid abroad
4. Exemption from taxation in Portugal and from income from foreign sources if it is able to be taxed abroad
5. Taxation at a flat rate of 20% for income obtained from a Portuguese source
