Frequently asked questions
How are working days counted to meet a legal deadline in Portugal?
Working days in Portugal include Monday through Friday, excluding national holidays and weekends. For legal deadlines, days are counted as running days or working days as specified in the applicable law; for example, a 10 working day deadline for responding to a notice excludes weekends and the 13 national holidays of 2026.
What is the impact of Portuguese holidays on invoice payment deadlines?
According to the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act (transposition of Directive 2011/7/EU), the standard payment deadline is 30 days from invoice issuance. If this deadline falls on a national holiday or weekend, it is automatically extended to the first working day following; in 2026, pay attention to Easter holidays (3-5 April) and Christmas.
How to calculate 30 working days in public procurement procedures (Public Contracts Code)?
The mandatory 30 working days for objections or appeals in public procurement procedures exclude weekends and national holidays. To calculate accurately in 2026, subtract the 13 national holidays from the 30 working days, resulting in approximately 39-40 running days, depending on when the deadline begins.
What is the procedure if a termination notice falls on a holiday in Portugal?
Termination notice in Portugal must respect minimum notice periods (14 days for fixed-term or probationary contracts, 30 days for indefinite contracts); if the first or last day falls on a national holiday or weekend, the deadline is automatically extended to the first working day following. This ensures both parties have effective working time.
How to correctly calculate a 60 or 90 day payment deadline in Portugal?
Commercial deadlines of 60 or 90 days are generally counted in running days (not working days), unless the contract specifies working days. It is recommended to confirm the day type in the contract; if working days, exclude the 13 national holidays of 2026 and weekends from the calculation to determine the exact due date.
