The Order of Certified Accountants (OCC) recently announced the extension of the deadline for invoice reporting, setting the new deadline at April 8, 2026.
This decision comes as a relief measure for accounting professionals and companies that were still finalizing their tax regularization processes, allowing more time to comply with this obligation with the Tax and Customs Authority (AT).
What is Invoice Reporting?
Invoice reporting is a tax obligation imposed on companies and professionals, consisting of the electronic transmission of data from invoices issued throughout the year to the Tax Authority. This process aims to ensure fiscal transparency and combat tax evasion in Portugal.
All companies with commercial, industrial, or service activities are required to report issued invoices, regardless of their turnover. Non-compliance can result in significant fines and additional tax complications.
What to do before the deadline?
With the extended deadline, it is essential that companies and accountants take advantage of this additional time to:
If your company uses certified invoicing software, most communications are done automatically. However, it is prudent to confirm that the process went smoothly.
Do not let it pile up!
Despite the extension, it is important not to delay further. Non-compliance with this obligation can lead to fines and tax penalties, so it is recommended to act as soon as possible.
Fines for failure to report invoices can range from €200 to €10,000, depending on the severity of the infraction and the volume of missing documents.
