FS11E - Financas payments by Direct Debit
To set up a Direct Debit (DD) payment on the Finanças website, please watch our 'How to...' video below or follow the step-by-step instructions below.
- Select Iniciar Sessão in the right upper corner
- Enter your fiscal number (Número de Contribuinte) and password (Senha de Acesso) where it says ‘NIF’ to access the Portal das Finanças and press the blue button ‘Autenticar’
A pop-up will appear asking you to reinforce your security – if you have an accountant taking care of your IRS, you do not want to set this up! You can click on ‘Continuar Login’
- Then type ‘Débito Direto’ in the search bar
- Click where it says ‘Pedido de Adesão’ and afterwords where it says ‘Novo Pedido de Adesão’
- Choose what you want to pay in ‘Finalidade’: IRS; IRC; IMI or IUC.
Check your bank details and choose ‘Continuar’
If you want to add or change the IBAN, you can do this to click on the link where it says ‘Alteração de NIB/IBAN’. Make sure you fill in the NIB/IBAN without any spaces in between
Select the ‘Tipo de Pagamento’ (type of payment): - Recorrente (recurring) or Pontual (singular)
For example, imagine that you have chosen the IUC payment option; this box should appear with your bank details and the authorisation in your name. Press ‘Confirmação’ then scroll down to print the document and press ‘Imprimir Documento Provisório’.
Please note that the document you print is proof that you have set up a DD, not proof of payment of the associated tax. You should keep this document in case there is any problem with the eventual payment, in order to prove that you set up the DD and the date on which it was confirmed. You will then receive a confirmation e-mail from Finanças, telling you when the DD payment will be taken from your account.
