What It Is

Portugal Dom was founded in 2004 and is a professional legal assistance and immigration services firm based in Lisbon, Portugal. It was founded by Irina Panfilova, who holds a PhD and is an officially certified translator. The firm primarily serves Russian-speaking clients and clients from CIS countries, offering one-stop services ranging from visa applications and certified document translation to company registration. To date, it has assisted more than 15,000 clients.

Core Service Dimensions

• Service scope: Extremely broad, covering end-to-end handling of various Portuguese visas, including D2/D3/D4/D7/DN/Startup/Golden Visa, as well as document translation and notarization, NIF tax number applications, bank account opening, company and sole trader registration, and even everyday services such as driving license exchange, consulate appointments, and ancestry/archive searches.
• Jurisdiction coverage: Focused on Portugal, but serves residents of all CIS countries and supports Portuguese visa applications submitted from any country.
• Pricing: Uses a transparent, project-based pricing model. Full-package visa services start from €1,750 for one person and from €1,350/person for families; company registration and sole trader setup are both €250; NIF application is €100; bank account opening is €150; translation services start from €20. Overall pricing is relatively transparent.
• Processing time: The official website does not clearly list specific timelines.
• Ongoing compliance/accounting: The materials do not clearly state that professional bookkeeping or tax filing services are offered, though customer reviews mention “regular tax and financial consultations.”
• Virtual address/registered agent: No virtual address or statutory registered agent service is mentioned.

Pros, Cons, and Pricing

Its strengths are its 21 years of operating history, solid experience, strong founder credentials, detailed service coverage, and transparent pricing—for example, company setup is only €250. The drawbacks are that its main customer base is Russian-speaking/CIS clients, which may create language and case-fit barriers for Chinese users. It also lacks clearly defined ongoing tax/accounting compliance and virtual address services, making it less suitable for cross-border sellers who need long-term bookkeeping support.

Who It’s For

Best suited for Russian-speaking families planning to relocate to Portugal, foreign nationals who need Portuguese visa and document notarization services, and self-employed founders starting a small business in Portugal.

Access from China

The official website uses a .pt domain, and access from China is unknown. Payment methods are not clearly stated. Given that it mainly serves CIS clients, it likely does not support Alipay or WeChat Pay, and users may need to rely on international credit cards or bank transfers. For Chinese users who do not speak the supported languages, it is advisable to look for local alternatives that offer Chinese-language support.
