More precisely, the Portuguese administration has set a date for the mandatory transmission of the SAF-T accounting document, which will be in 2025. The first report will be due early in 2026 for resident businesses.
As a reminder, the SAF-T Accounting document is a file in the Standard Audit File for Tax format, an international standard used for exchanging accounting and tax information. Decree Law 48/2020 defines the use and characteristics that the SAF-T accounting document must comply with, as well as the measures to be adopted.
