The Portuguese state collected 36,953 million euros in taxes through July 2026, representing an increase of 3.8% compared to the same period in 2025, according to the budget execution summary published by the Budgetary Entity, formerly the DGO agency.

In direct taxes, total revenue grew by 2.4%, driven mainly by the increase in net IRS revenue, which rose by 561.3 million euros, equivalent to 5.9%, despite the growth in refunds of 11.6%.

In contrast, net IRC revenue decreased by 133.5 million euros, a drop of 2.1% compared to the same period last year.

The data was announced this Monday, August 31, through the budget execution summary prepared by the Budgetary Entity.
