The leasing company owns operational lease vehicles. Cars must be registered with the General Directorate of vehicles. The owner must pay the registration tax, fees and first year's road tax. Once registration requirements have been fulfilled, the registration plates are issued. The registration certificate is issued in the name of the legal owner (Finlog).
No customer document is required because the car is being registered in the name of the operational lease company.

Generally VAT rate in Portugal is 23%. There percentages are applied according to the rules imposed by TAX Authorities.
Vehicle tax: registration tax is paid once only when the vehicle is registered for the first time in Portugal, whether new or used. Vehicle tax is calculated based on two criteria: the displacement and CO2 emissions of the vehicle.
