In Portugal, taxation rules differ for employees and employers. Every employee contributes 11% of their monthly salary to social security coverage. Employers contribute 23.75%. The country employs a progressive tax system in which employees pay a higher percentage of their earnings.

3. Municipal surcharge of up to 1.5%, depending on the municipality

Accrued and unused vacation time is also owed to the employee, regardless of the reason for and manner of termination.
