5. 1 Acquiring or Selling Real Estate
Legal Procedures

The first step in acquiring a real state is to obtain all the necessary legal documents. In Portugal in order to buy a real estate property, for example a flat, several legal documents are needed:

License of Use (a document issued by the Local Town Hall for purposes of approving the use of the same, for example, habitation license); 1. Property Registration Certificate (Document of the Public Land Registry that certifies the ownership); 2. Real Estate Tax Document (issued by the Tax Authorities, this document certifies that the property is registered for tax purposes); 3. Personal Tax Number (if the buyer is a non-resident, he will have to establish a tax representation in order to obtain a Portuguese tax number); The second step is to enter into a contract of real estate transfer. This contract needs to be performed before a Public Notary.

Transfer Tax is also due (see above)

After that you will have to request the inscription of the ownership in the Public Land Registry and in the Real Estate Tax Document.
