### Como funciona o IVA em Portugal?

O **Imposto sobre o Valor Acrescentado (IVA)** é cobrado em quase todas as transações de bens e serviços. As taxas variam conforme a região (Continente, Madeira, Açores) e o tipo de bem ou serviço (reduzida, intermédia ou normal).

Pode estar enquadrado em três regimes principais: **isenção** (art. 53º, até 15 000,00 €), **IVA de caixa** (até 2 000 000,00 €) ou **regime normal**.

## How VAT works

VAT is a multi-stage tax collected at all production and distribution stages. Companies deduct VAT paid on purchases and pay the State the difference to VAT charged on sales.

## When it applies

Applies to almost all goods and services transactions. Main exceptions: medical services, education, cultural activities and financial operations.

## Common mistakes

-   Applying mainland rate to invoices for Madeira or Azores.
-   Not communicating cash VAT regime option by 31 October.
-   Staying in the exemption regime after exceeding 15,000 €.

## FAQ

**How do I exit the exemption regime?**  
Notify the Tax Authority within 15 days after exceeding the limit. For transition support, request a free proposal.

**Can I recover VAT on fuel expenses?**  
Only under specific conditions (professional diesel, business vehicles). Tax consulting optimises these deductions.
