Número de Identificação Fiscal

Tax Identification Number

Clark visits the local Loja do Cidadão to get his NIF (Portuguese tax number). He has to wait a while, but once his number is called, it’s a quick and easy process!

One important vocabulary word to note is senha. This translates to password, but it also refers to the tickets you take from a machine when waiting for assistance. It’s usually a little slip of paper with a number, or a letter and number, such as A3. You listen or look for that senha to know when it’s your turn.

  • My first comment after 3 months or so. Moved to Algarve 5 weeks ago. I try and do at least 30 minutes per day on language learning. PP is really fun. Cheers Tony 🍻

  • I absolutely love these practice audios at the different levels – love the different features (vocabulary, transcript) and the quiz for testing comprehension!
    Thanks team
