Welcome to Dixcart Portugal – Madeira Office

Located in Funchal, Madeira is part of Portugal, an island located southwest of Portugal’s mainland, in the Atlantic Ocean. It is an integral part of the European Union and individuals and corporations that are resident, or registered in Madeira, will therefore have full access to all of Portugal’s international treaties and conventions.

It is well known for its tourist attractions but also offers the International Business Centre of Madeira (MIBC), which offers appealing tax benefits to attract foreign investment.

Corporate Formation and Management

Portuguese companies incorporated in Madeira present a safe long-term investment. The advantages in using such companies are enhanced still further by Madeira’s preferential tax regime and the related fiscal benefits approved by the European Union (EU).

Madeira companies are subject to a reduced corporate tax of 5% until the end of 2027.

Madeira (Portugal) has also become a hub for digital nomads, offering opportunities for many individuals from around the world wishing to establish a presence in Europe. Madeira offers market advantages and a favourable business environment because of its strategic location in Europe and access to other important markets.

Relocating to Portugal

Portugal offers a variety of visa programmes, most typically the Portugal Golden Visa and D2 and D7 visa programmes. For those who relocate to Madeira or mainland Portugal, this may require advice regarding wealth structuring and applications to the attractive Non-Habitual Regime, which can offer a number of tax benefits.

Madeira has its own international shipping register (MAR), offering similar tax efficiencies to those available through the MIBC. Aircrafts, ships and yachts may be structured in an MIBC offering tax efficient ownership structures.
