Prime minister announces supplement for pensioners and IRS relief up to sixth bracket

Diário de Aveiro8 September 2026 at 16:19

Prime Minister Luís Montenegro announced a supplement for pensioners and tax relief on IRS up to the sixth bracket. Both measures are intended to support citizens given the current economic situation.

According to Luís Montenegro, these measures will cover more than two million pensioners. The supplement for pensioners aims to mitigate the impact of the increased cost of living on this group.

The IRS relief up to the sixth bracket will benefit more than two million households. This fiscal measure seeks to reduce the tax burden on families with intermediate incomes.

The measures were announced at a time when the government seeks to respond to the economic difficulties faced by the Portuguese, particularly by pensioners and families with more modest incomes.
