Portugal social security payment schedules

Overview

The social security landscape in Portugal involves specific timelines for both employer contributions and citizen benefit disbursements.

Following a policy change in February 2026, employers have until the 25th of each month to complete social security contribution payments for the previous month’s remunerations. While the payment deadline is the 25th, employers are required to verify calculated amounts by the 20th; failure to respond by that date results in the amounts being deemed accepted.

Regarding disbursements, social benefit payments, including pensions and occupational disease benefits, are scheduled to begin on October 2.
