e-Fatura
e-Fatura is the Portuguese tax authority's (AT) centralised portal for electronic invoicing. Every business issuing invoices to consumers must communicate them to AT via SAF-T export or API. Faturium automatically matches your bank transactions against the e-Fatura data feed, eliminating manual cross-checking.
What it means
e-Fatura (short for *fatura electrónica*) is the AT portal at faturas.portaldasfinancas.gov.pt where consumers can view all invoices issued in their name and reclaim VAT credits. For businesses, it is the legal obligation to report every consumer invoice within the deadlines set by Portaria 302-A/2016.
Practical implications
Faturium ingests your monthly SAF-T (PT) export from your accounting software and reconciles each invoice against your bank statement lines. Any line that has a corresponding e-Fatura entry is marked as matched; divergences surface as items requiring manual review.
