Who we are

The team
behind your NIF.

NIF Express is the online service of Blue Ocean Immigration — a Portuguese immigration consultancy in the heart of Lisbon, specialised in immigration, residency, and tax representation for non-residents.

Why we built NIF Express

Our parent firm, Blue Ocean Immigration (bocean.pt), has been guiding non-residents through Portuguese bureaucracy for years — Golden Visas, D7 visas, residency permits, real estate transactions, fiscal representation.

We noticed that 99% of new clients started with the same painful question: "How do I get a Portuguese NIF without flying to Lisbon?" Most online services either charge a fortune, disappear after taking your money, or aren't actually qualified to represent you fiscally.

So we built NIF Express — a focused, transparent service for the one thing 90% of foreigners need first: a Portuguese tax ID, plus the mandatory yearly fiscal representation that comes with it.

We are not a tech startup with a fancy app and a contract somewhere offshore. We are a Portuguese immigration consultancy with a real office, real licensed lawyers, and real responsibility under Portuguese law for what we do for you.

What makes us different

⚖️ Bar-registered legal partners

Every Power of Attorney is signed by a lawyer registered with the Ordem dos Advogados de Portugal. That gives you formal, legal representation before the Autoridade Tributária — not a workaround.

🏛️ Avenida da Liberdade — minutes from the AT

Our office at Avenida da Liberdade, n.º 67B, 3.º B, 1250-140 Lisboa, Portugal sits in central Lisbon. When the Tax Authority needs original signatures or wants to clarify a detail, we walk over and resolve it the same day. Clients abroad never feel the friction.

🛡️ The firm is your fiscal representative

BOCEAN IMMIGRATION PORTUGAL, LDA (NIPC 519043731) is registered as your representative. The Autoridade Tributária sends mail to our office, we forward it to you, and we handle responses.

🔄 Cancel any time, no traps

The annual fiscal representation renews automatically because the law requires non-residents to maintain one. Cancel from your portal in two clicks — we then formally inform the AT that we're no longer your representative.

🤝 Beyond NIF — full immigration support

If you decide to move to Portugal — D7 visa, Golden Visa, residency, NHR tax status — Blue Ocean Immigration handles everything. Our NIF clients get priority and a 10% discount on follow-up services. bocean.pt
