Portugal’s 2024 Budget Law has been approved, marking a significant milestone in the country’s financial landscape. The mandatory adoption of qualified electronic signatures has been delayed by a year, giving businesses more time to integrate this digital authentication method into their operations. The submission of the Standard Audit File for Tax (SAF-T) has also been postponed until 2025, with mandatory submission in 2026. This delay recognizes the complex nature of transitioning to a more digitally driven accounting system and allows businesses to enhance their technological infrastructure. The government’s approach demonstrates a commitment to technological advancements while supporting businesses in their gradual transition to a more digitally focused future.
