Structural support during the first 90 days
We know that the early stages of a business require operational stability and impeccable technical organisation. Unlike a purely bureaucratic approach, FHH implements an executive programme comprising three key stages over the first 90 days of operation:
Diagnosis and Initial Assessment
Technical validation of the company structure, coordination of the commencement of tax activities with the tax authorities, and preparation of the financial documentation for bank verification.
Parameterisation and Operational Circuits
Implementation of the accounting architecture in accordance with SNC standards, configuration of invoicing and accounting software, and design of the company’s document workflows.
Stabilisation and Internal Audit
Ongoing executive oversight and technical verification of the initial procedures, ensuring the company’s structure is ready for an audit and prepared for financial control reporting.

Frequently Asked Questions
The timeframe depends on the procedure selected, for example, “Empresa na Hora” vs. the traditional incorporation process. FHH’s technical support ensures that the initial tax framework, NIF/NIPC validation and all required documentation are properly organised and compliant, allowing the formal incorporation process to proceed as quickly as possible.
We provide support across all technical accounting and tax matters. We ensure that your company complies with Portuguese legislation and the Portuguese Accounting Standards System (SNC), organise the initial filing process with the Portuguese Tax Authority, and provide technical support with the compliance documentation required to open operational bank accounts.
Once the document workflows, system configuration and initial tax framework have been fully established, your company transitions seamlessly to the FHH Accounting service. At this stage, we ensure ongoing accounting compliance and begin preparing periodic analytical financial reports to directly support management decision-making.
