- In 2025, Portugal will extend the reduced 6% VAT rate to new construction and renovation, offering significant tax relief for families.
- To qualify, properties must not exceed a sale value of 648,022 euros or a monthly rent of 2,300 euros, making cost control and detailed planning essential.
- Properties must be sold or rented within two years of the use license to retain the tax benefit, requiring efficient commercial planning.
- For self-build projects, VAT is refunded after completion, so families need upfront financial liquidity.
