What a Portuguese KYC file usually needs
Corporate KYC commonly starts with current commercial registry evidence, company statutes, legal representatives and beneficial ownership.
Banks and compliance teams add their own requirements around activity, address, financial information, tax or criminal records. We build the Portuguese side around the actual onboarding list.
Registry evidence
We obtain the basic commercial registry certificate, registry + documents, current articles of association, FCPC certificate and other official registry material.
If the team needs evidence of directors or representation, we select the registry record and supporting company documents that show it.
Beneficial ownership
RCBE is the Portuguese beneficial ownership register.
We handle the RCBE evidence stream separately from the commercial registry, then combine both in the KYC package.
Additional compliance documents
A KYC file can also require annual accounts, company criminal record, tax debt certificate, powers of attorney or certified translations.
Portugal Papers already handles these Portuguese document families, so the compliance team does not need a different supplier for every line of the checklist.
Built for foreign compliance teams
Send the onboarding email, portal screenshot or formal list.
We turn it into the exact Portuguese company document package and keep the case moving until the file is complete.
