Fast-Track support for Strategic Investments in Portugal
Developing large-scale projects in Portugal can be a complex journey, requiring coordination across multiple stages and entities. However, securing Portuguese Important Project (PIN) or Investment Project for the Interior (PII) status unlocks a powerful advantage—streamlining approvals and accelerating progress.
With direct support from key governmental bodies such as APA, CCDR, Floene, REN, and others, investors benefit from: ✔ Priority in licensing – ensuring faster approvals ✔ Simultaneous administrative processing – cutting through bureaucracy ✔ Significant reduction in timelines – getting projects off the ground quicker
For those looking to invest in Portugal, PIN/PII status is the key to unlocking efficiency and success.

Open applications for a new support line for micro and small companies
This credit line is the implementation of a measure foreseen in the State Budget for 2021, that seeks to support micro and small companies in their treasury needs.
The maximum support limit is EUR 75,000 for small companies and EUR 25,000 for micro-enterprises, corresponding to EUR 3,000 for each job in the company in the month immediately preceding the application, multiplied by three.
Companies that use this credit line assume the commitment to maintain the number of jobs, existing on October 1st, 2020, for a minimum period of one year after the granting of the financing. Also, during this period, it will not be possible to fire employees.
With a budget of EUR 100 M to be allocated by December 31st, in the form of a refundable grant, this support line will be managed by IAPMEI.
