Company Registration In Portugal

Portugal is located in Europe, west of Spain, and borders the North Atlantic Ocean. It is the westernmost country in Europe. Portugal is one of the world’s most globalized and peaceful nations. Over the past two decades, successive Portuguese governments have privatised many state-controlled firms and liberalised key areas of the economy, including the financial and telecommunications sectors. Portugal is a developed country with a very high Human Development Index, the world’s 19th-highest quality-of-life, and a strong healthcare system. With the convenient Euro currency, Portugal is an ideal place to set up a company. Licensehub.in can assist you in registering a company in Portugal.
