Banco de Portugal 'warns': this is the maximum number of coins you can use for payments in Portugal

Banco de Portugal warned that, according to Decree-Law No. 246/2007, no one is obligated to accept more than 50 euro coins in a single payment, regardless of the total value presented. This means that a store can refuse a payment from the 51st coin onwards, even if the total amount is high, since the count is made by units and not by value. The rule does not apply to the State, Banco de Portugal, or credit institutions, and should not be confused with the prohibition on cash payments equal to or exceeding 3,000 euros provided for in Law No. 92/2017.
