The Portuguese government has announced a temporary adjustment to invoice notification deadlines due to the Easter holiday period. Recognizing that many citizens are traveling or away from their place of residence during the first week of April, authorities have extended the deadline for businesses to submit invoice notifications.
The measure applies to invoices covered under Article 3, paragraphs (1) and (2) of Decree-Law No. 198/2012. Businesses may submit their March 2026 invoices without penalties or surcharges until April 8, 2026. It applies to all invoices that must be reported to the Portuguese Tax Authority (AT). The extension was introduced to accommodate the national holiday.
