If you've recently changed your habitual residence, it's crucial to inform the Tax Authority promptly, generally through the Portal das Finanças. The Tax Authority's regulations require you to communicate your new tax residence within 60 days of the change.

For foreign residents in Portugal without a Citizen Card, the tax address change can be done online via the Tax Authority’s website or in person at any Tax and Customs Authority branch. Once the request is performed, a confirmation code letter will be sent to your new address to complete the alteration process.

Portuguese nationals, individuals with a Citizen Card or Identity Card, must handle their tax address change directly through the respective card, not at the Tax Office.
