Highly recommend especially if you're new to Portugal
I highly recommend Rauva to take care of all your bookkeeping & tax needs, especially if you are new to Portugal, have never worked in Portugal or owned a company before, like myself. The advice & guidance I received from my new accountant Ana Balcao is priceless, she explained it all to me & I now feel more confident in starting & running a new business in Portugal. Thank you Ana, I look forward to working with you!

Wouldn't recommend if you do business outside of Europe
Tried Rauva for 6 months as I moved to Portugal. The beginning was quite okay however the last few months have been a lot of issues. Especially if you have to make payments to countries outside of Europe I would not recommend Rauva. Took over 2 weeks for a payment to be fixed and I'm still experiencing issues after this..

Speaking to a person that cares
Maria took time explaining her requirements in English and understanding my responses as well; which was good.
She was empathetic to my situation as a startup founder setting up a business in a new country.
