About

Get to know us

Golden Account was founded in Porto with one goal: to bring the quality of big-firm accounting to companies, subsidiaries, branches, and growing businesses -- without the big-firm price tag. Our English-speaking team combines strong academic backgrounds with hands-on experience across dozens of industries, helping foreign companies establish and operate in Portugal.

Unlike traditional accountants who you hear from once a quarter at tax time, we maintain a close, ongoing relationship with every client. You have direct access to your accountant by phone or email. We proactively flag issues and opportunities -- not just report on the past.

We serve businesses across Porto, Matosinhos, Vila Nova de Gaia, and Ermesinde. Not happy with your current accountant? Switch to Golden Account with zero hassle -- we handle the entire transition. Talk to us with no obligation.
