Tax digitization: transparency, anti-fraud and fiscal integrity

The Portuguese fiscalization pursues the reduction of retail fraud and a complete documentation of business processes. Specialized software is used to generate reports for tax authorities and assign identifiers to fiscal documents. This promotes transparency, minimizes fraud and strengthens Portugal's fiscal integrity.

Tax Compliance in Portugal

The Portuguese tax system is based on software-based fiscalization. Any point-of-sale software requires formal accreditation by the tax authority before use. This accreditation, represented by a Portuguese company, follows rigorous compliance testing. Timeline of Portugal:

Heading

What's a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
