Reduction of tax withheld on non-resident income

You are tax resident in another country and are preparing to request reduced withholding before receiving income from Portugal.

Form 21-RFI — Request for full or partial relief from Portuguese withholding tax. Submit to the Portuguese payer, through a financial intermediary for share dividends and debt securities interest. For beneficiaries who are not tax resident in Portugal, where an applicable double taxation agreement exists. Includes the blank Portuguese/English original with integrated instructions. Requires a residence certificate from the other country’s tax authority covering the period and liability to tax. This is not a general personal income tax claim; the service does not submit the request or guarantee relief.

We help you get the right form, explain what it is for and guide you through completing it. You receive the blank PDF after paying for the service, without needing to log in to the authority’s portal. Include it with other documents in the same individual request and payment.

This is a blank form, not a certificate or a document issued in your name. The person or organisation specified on the form is responsible for completing and signing it; we do not submit applications, book appointments or guarantee approval. The PedirDocumentos fee covers obtaining and organising the form, explaining its purpose and guidance on completing it. Check the applicable version and requirements with the authority.
