Clear explanations regarding the process and the services provided. Relevant explanations regarding technical and legal contexts. A good experience—I recommend it.
Hi Alex, Indeed Portuguese processes tend to be quite bureaucratic so I'm happy we were able to untangle it for you. Thank you! Best, César from Novomove
Novomove staff are soo supportive! They are always checking in and going the extra mile. They are also very responsive. I would recommend them to others relocating to Portugal.

Absolutely great service from Novomove. Needed to obtain a NIF as my wife and I explore our options of moving from the UK to Portugal. As I have an Irish Passport and my wife a British one, thought I would be able to just go in to a Finanças and obtain one, but informed at our appointment as not resident in Portugal that I would need a fiscal rep. Explored various options online and discovered that Novomove offered a cost effective, quick and efficient service. Brilliant communications, easy process to follow both on email and the Novomove portal and in a very short time had my NIF emailed to me as well as followed not long after by the login password and instructions to change the initial Finaças login. Impressed with the support and any queries were answered very quickly by Dianne and Maya. Thanks again for your help. Now to see where we would like to live.
Hi Liam, The NIF process can catch a lot of people off guard. Especially the fiscal rep requirement for non-residents, so we're really glad Dianne and Maya could get you both sorted quickly and smoothly. We're here whenever you need assistance from us. Best regards, César from Novomove
Novomove is provides exceptional service and support. They are so professional and helpful. Navigating the process of immigration to another country is daunting but they are an amazing support. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking assistance to move to Portugal. Their helpful is beyond expectation!
Hi Denise, relocating to a new country is a huge step and we're so glad we could take some of that weight off your shoulders. Wishing you all the best in Portugal! Warm regards, César from Novomove
Mariana was super helpful, kind and knowledgeable. She made me feel so comfortable and confident in the process.
Hi Theresa, We're very glad to hear that. Thank you for the kind words. I'll share that with Mariana for sure, she'll love to know, and can't wait to assist you on your move to Portugal! Best, César from Novomove
Cesar was friendly, helpful and knowledgable and a pleasure to speak to.
Hi Jon, Thank you for the kind words. I do appreciate them, and we're here whenever you need us! Best, César from Novomove
To get a NIF whilst living outside of Portugal requires using somebody inside Portugal to get it for you. We saw a few options online and decided to use Novomove. It was a good choice as they sorted our NIF's no problem and their communication was great.
Hi Harry, Thank you for choosing Novomove. We all appreciate it and having honest, efficient communication is definitely what we aim for. If we can ever assist you again, we're here! Best, César from Novomove
Novomove was very effective and made the process of getting my NIF easy. Responsive and helpful communications and friendly staff. Great value. Highly recommend.
Hi Wayne, Thank you very much for the kind words. We all appreciate it. If you ever need anything from us, we're here to support you! Best, César from Novomove
Their instructions were not very clear or using images that were outdated. Services seemed very expensive for not doing much work; additional work, like requesting your address to be updated (which only they can do), is another charge. They want proof you have removed them as your financial representative after a year. Flying to Portugal and back would have been about the same price and much more enjoyable.
Hi Anodyne, We're sorry to hear your experience felt this way. I'd like to clarify a few points that are inaccurate, so as not to create confusion for future clients. As the NIF holder, clients can update their address directly with the Portuguese Tax Authority for free at any time, as long as they have the right documentation. For EU citizens, this means a CRUE issued at least 6 months earlier; for non-EU citizens, a residency card with valid Portuguese address documentation. We're always available to guide clients through this process, as we did in your case. Regarding fiscal representation, our model is intentionally flexible. After the initial 12-month period, clients are free to decide whether to renew or proceed with removal. We do not automatically enroll clients into ongoing subscriptions. For removal, we offer a free step-by-step DIY guide, or a paid service where our team handles the removal on the client's behalf. You were offered both at the time and chose to handle it yourself. It's important to note that while our partner fiscal representative is listed on a NIF, they hold ongoing legal obligations before the Portuguese Tax Authority on your behalf. For this reason, we ask clients to either renew the representation or confirm its removal, so that this responsibility is properly maintained or formally concluded. Our NIF service covers the full process: remote issuance, physical mail receipt (including portal passwords), and 12 months of fiscal representation by a certified Portuguese lawyer - which is why many clients choose this route instead of handling it independently. We appreciate your feedback on the clarity of our materials and will continue improving them to ensure everything is as clear and up to date as possible. Kind regards, César from Novomove

I needed to obtain my NIF under a very tight deadline, I saw the reviews online and opted for Novomove. What can I say, best decision ever. This saved me so much stress and possibly missing my deadline. The service offered is so fast, precise, easy to follow, you feel supported every step of the way. I received my NIF in 3 business days. I especially have to thank Maya Rivera for her professionalism and Dianne Castillo who helped me and followed my request.
Hi Alice, thank you for sharing this — it genuinely made our day! Knowing we could help you meet such a tight deadline means a lot, and we're so glad the experience felt smooth and well-supported from start to finish. Maya and Dianne will be thrilled to hear your kind words. Wishing you all the best with everything ahead, and we're always here if you need us again. Best regards, César from Novomove
Made the process of acquiring NIF numbers and opening bank accounts much easier and hassle free. For non EU citizens it is worth the cost for the problem solving Novomove bring.
Hi Karl, Really appreciate you taking the time to leave this — it means a lot! Navigating these processes as a non-EU citizen can feel overwhelming, so knowing we made it that bit easier and stress-free is exactly what we're here for. Glad it was worth it! Best regards, César from Novomove
We had so many questions unique to our case. It can be hard especially if the process has specific circumstances. The Novomove team was helpful with everything. They were always quick to respond and they covered every little detail with good care. We received our visa thanks to their help. I'm really grateful.
Hi Ersel, I've thanked you separately but here again; this one really means a lot to us — thank you for sharing it. Cases with unique circumstances can be genuinely complex to navigate, and we know how much uncertainty can come with that process. We're so glad the team and Mariana were able to stay on top of items and keep things moving for you. Receiving your visa at the end of it all — that's exactly the outcome we work for. Wishing you a wonderful new chapter in Portugal! 🇵🇹 Best regards, César from Novomove

I had an excellent experience working with Alex. From start to finish, they were professional, patient, and incredibly helpful. They took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure I understood each step, and went above and beyond to resolve my issue. What really stood out was their positive attitude and willingness to help nothing felt like too much trouble. It’s rare to come across someone so dedicated and genuinely focused on providing great service. Thanks to Alex, the whole process was smooth and stress free. I really appreciate their support and would highly recommend them to anyone needing assistance.
