Excellent: start to end for NIF process

Great communication, speedy process all the way through to temporary password in acquiring my NIF - all whilst remaining competitively priced.

In short, if you need a NIF and you are abroad and value your time, use Novomove. Stop reading any more reviews!

Based on this experience, I would be confident using their services for opening a bank account remotely also should I want to in future.

NIF registration was perfect

The communication is very clear and the process is fast and easy to follow. I recommend a tablet or smart phone with a pen for signing, because the signature is actually checked. I will gladly recommend this service.

Got my NIF in 1 day

Considering how nervous I was about bureaucracy in Portugal because everyone was telling me how slow and difficult everything is there, I'm more than happy with the service provided by Novomove. They completed my order the next day, and the price was reasonable, compared to other companies.
Their communication is quick, friendly and helpful, so I felt supported throughout the process. I also really appreciate the very clear guides on their website.

This company deserves all 5-stars! They are awesome and efficient, and I recommend using their service to get documents in Portugal like NIF.

The collaboration with the Novomove…

The collaboration with the Novomove team has been excellent from the beginning until today. The team is always approachable, versatile and everything is done as soon as possible and successfully so far. The team is manageable and can therefore be contacted personally at any time - a big advantage in contrast to large working groups with constantly changing clerks. Correspondence is in English and can be done without any problems thanks to Google Translate.
We are completely satisfied and very grateful for everything so far and can recommend Novomove at any time.
