Beyond Tax Incentives: Flexible Solutions for Remote Work and Hiring in Portugal

Portugal has introduced exciting new tax incentives like the TISRI regime (Tax Incentive for Scientific Research and Innovation), also known as IFICI+ or “NHR 2.0,” designed to attract international talent in innovation-driven industries. While this program offers attractive tax benefits, not everyone qualifies.

That’s why Unbound Jump offers a flexible Employer of Record solution that supports:

  • Individuals working remotely for foreign companies who want to establish legal employment in Portugal without opening a company
  • Highly qualified professionals and entrepreneurs seeking to benefit from Portugal’s tax incentives, including TISRI/IFICI
  • Foreign companies wishing to hire and employ Portuguese staff legally and compliantly, without the burden of setting up a local entity
    •  

Our platform manages your employment, payroll, and compliance, making your move or hiring process smooth and hassle-free.

Unbound Jump’s EOR platform handles your employment, payroll, and compliance so you can focus on your work and lifestyle

What Is TISRI and Why is it the New NHR 2.0?

The TISRI regime was designed to attract global talent in science, research, innovation, tech, and entrepreneurship. It provides a 10-year tax benefit period and encourages professionals to relocate to Portugal, helping position the country as a European innovation hub.

 

Key Benefits:

  • 20% flat income tax on eligible Portuguese employment/self-employment income
  • Up to 100% exemption on most foreign income (depending on source country)
  • Open to employees, freelancers, and startup founders
  • Can be accessed via an Employer of Record (EOR), without opening a company
  • Valid for 10 consecutive years

Unbound Jump’s EOR platform handles your employment, payroll, and compliance so you can focus on your work and lifestyle.

Qualification Criteria Include:

  • Portuguese tax residency (not resident in Portugal in the past 5 years)
  • If you were previously granted NHR status, you cannot qualify for this new tax incentive: IFICI
  • Eligible industries such as IT, R&D, biotech, audiovisual, green energy, and more
  • Have either:
    • A Level 6 to 8 qualification (Bachelor’s to PhD), or
    • At least 3 years of relevant professional experience

If you meet the criteria, we help you access this incentive efficiently.
