It is possible for overseas payment or e-money institutions to provide services in Portugal with prior authorization and registration with the BoP. Depending on the state of origin, the requirements and procedures may differ. Companies located in EU Member States may choose to provide their services in Portugal through a Portuguese branch, through a Portuguese agent or through a license that allows them to do so.1
In the event that the applicant entity is based in a third-country state, it must incorporate a branch or, alternatively, incorporate a subsidiary legal entity on the Portuguese territory (by following the relevant, though more demanding, procedure).1
