Observador | Pro Bono | What changes with the 2026 State Budget?
“This Budget is stripped of any tax policy,” begins Mariana Gouveia de Oliveira in the latest episode of Pro Bono, the Observador podcast dedicated to taxation and fiscal administration for the coming year. “Companies don’t know what to expect. No matter how much the central government tries to introduce stability in tax legislation, it is completely eroded by the enormous instability in fiscal administration policy.”
The Tax Law specialist at Abreu Advogados explains what is at stake with some of the measures proposed in the State Budget — namely, changes to personal income tax (IRS) brackets, the reduction of corporate income tax (IRC), and the update of the Social Support Index (IAS). Who stands to benefit most? Will Portugal become more tax-competitive?
Every Thursday at 16:35, in the Pro Bono programme, Abreu Advogados and Rádio Observador help companies make informed decisions, understand the most complex aspects of the law, and clarify key current issues.
