Tax on Instant Access Savings

Tax deduction from Instant Access Savings

As required by Portuguese tax law, we deduct withholding tax from any interest before it is credited to your Instant Access Savings. The applicable rate depends on your fiscal address: 28% for users in Mainland Portugal and 19.6% for users in the Autonomous Regions of Madeira and the Azores.

The deductible tax needs to reach €0.01 before we begin withholding this tax. In cases where it's less than this amount, we'll continue to accrue your interest until it reaches €0.01 (at which point it's deducted from your next interest payment).

As a result, the tax rate for each interest payment may be different. To see the tax withheld on your total interest payments, you can use your combined savings statements. Read this FAQ to learn how to calculate interest and tax on Instant Access Savings.
