Very easy to apply for the NIF through their website. Easy to take pictures of the needed documents with mobile although process was started with tablet. You just have to scan a QR code to go on with your mobile. Very easy process overall and NIF was sent today, so it took only 2 days. Absolutely recommend AnchorLess!!

We had a 1:1 meeting to discuss our personal situation and how to proceed. Then Rosa became our rockstar. She has guided us thru the NIF process and now we are on our way to getting the Bank Account set up in Portugal. They break everything down into manageable tasks and have greatly reduced our stress!

I needed to get a NIF urgently and received it on the same day. I also tried to get a NIF at the financial office and after standing for 6 hours waiting was told that they do not distribute the numbers. So getting it through AnchorLess definitely saves a lot of stress and time.

What is a tax representative for a NIF?
Relocation expert
When you are not a legal resident in Portugal, the country needs a point of contact with you in the country to manage your tax responsibilities.
Your tax representative shares their address with the authorities and acts as the official link between you and the Portuguese system.

Why do you need a fiscal representative?

Fantastic service

Fantastic service, very fast turnaround and getting the NIF was cheaper than what we had been quoted elsewhere. I had a slight issue due to a mistake that I had made and they were really helpful to make sure that the delay was minimal.
Highly recommended!

Superb Customer Service

I used Anchorless to obtain my NIF and Portuguese bank account online. The work began during the holidays in December 2023 and ended the first week of February 2024 [...]. I heartily recommend Anchorless. Getting the NIF and bank account through my immigration attorney would have cost me at least $1000 more.

Highly recommend Anchorless for your Immigration procedures in Portugal

We found Anchorless on Google, hired them to process this important document for us, and... Voila! it arrived TODAY!! As a former US Immigration translator for 21 years found the speed of this procedure absolutely amazing.

The best. As simple as that

This is the second time that I use the services provided by Anchorless. This time to obtain my daughter's NIF. The service is not only quick and efficient but also painless and effortless which is everything you could ask for while relocating to a foreign country. Thank you

Better than helpful

In expecting mediocre, non-personalized help from Anchorless I was, I'm happy to say, pleasantly surprised to be wrong. I'm considering using them again for phase two.

"Going the extra mile" as the cliche says is what this company does and I would highly recommend them to anyone unsure of themselves when it comes to completing the paperwork required to begin the visa application process.

Excellent service and support

Excellent service and support. We spoke with a representative who had broad knowledge and made it clear how we could move forward, what we could do, and what we needed further support. Technically, everything was friendly, with immediate response. We highly recommend this service.
