Whether you qualify for Portugal’s IFICI — the activity-gated successor to the NHR regime that closed in 2024. Checks your eligibility for Portugal’s IFICI (Incentivo Fiscal à Investigação Científica e Inovação, widely called "NHR 2.0"): 20% flat tax on eligible-activity Portuguese income for 10 years, with most foreign income exempt. The old NHR closed to new entrants on 1 Jan 2024, yet general AI still tells people to "apply for NHR" and quotes its 10% foreign-pension rate — gone: IFICI taxes foreign pensions at full progressive rates. The real gate is an activity test across six routes with route-specific certifying entities (FCT, AT, ANI, Startup Portugal, AICEP) — this tool walks the gates in order and names the route, the certifier, and the registration deadline.
