For instance, where previously income between \u20ac11,284 to \u20ac15,992 was taxed at 26.5%, in 2024, income from \u20ac11,623 to \u20ac16,472 is now taxed at 23%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The top rate for taxes in Portugal remains at 48%, but now applies to income over \u20ac81,199. These changes mean that individuals earning \u20ac20,000 will pay \u20ac790 less in taxes, while those earning \u20ac70,000 will save \u20ac527\u200b\u200b.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Siete afflitti dall'indecisione finanziaria? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"288\" src=\"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Adam-Fayed-Contact_CTA3-512x288.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117505\" style=\"width:683px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Adam-Fayed-Contact_CTA3-512x288.jpg 512w, https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Adam-Fayed-Contact_CTA3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Adam-Fayed-Contact_CTA3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Adam-Fayed-Contact_CTA3-scaled.jpg 825w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/become-adams-client\/\">Diventa mio cliente<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/good-match-quiz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fare il quiz sull'idoneit\u00e0 del cliente<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contatto<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Adam \u00e8 un autore riconosciuto a livello internazionale in materia finanziaria con oltre 830 milioni di visualizzazioni di risposte su Quora, un libro molto venduto su Amazon e un contributo su Forbes.<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expat Taxes in Portugal<\/p>","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":78369,"parent":82638,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_10166176115445471_100883565069113":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-78366","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/78366","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78366"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/78366\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":83464,"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/78366\/revisions\/83464"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/82638"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/adamfayed.com\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
