Can I open the company in Portugal myself and save on the agency? Is it worth hiring Filnet? [Reddit]
Answered by a local advisor in English, no commitment.
Answer
Legally you can try it yourself, but the initial savings often turn into time, mistakes, and headaches. At Filnet, an expert advisor in Portugal takes care of the part that you neither master nor need to master as a newcomer. You avoid incorrectly done procedures, back-and-forth with the authorities, and misunderstood translations that would make you lose weeks. For a first-timer, making a mistake on a detail can cost more than the service. The peace of mind of submitting every document correctly the first time has a value that is especially noticeable when something would have gone wrong. That's why, especially for your first step, hiring Filnet is usually well worth it.
