3 we have used

Millennium BCP

One of Portugal’s largest retail banks, with branches everywhere and an English-language app. A Portuguese IBAN at a Portuguese bank is what landlords, utilities and Finanças actually expect.

Our main Portuguese bank.

Revolut

Nationwide / Remote

App-based account with cards and instant transfers, opened in minutes. That speed matters when a landlord wants a deposit this week and a Portuguese bank wants an appointment next month.

In daily use here.
