The other 30% is spread throughout the country. The cities in the coastal region are very popular with tourists, such as Albufeira, Porto and Lisbon.
Language
The language spoken in Portugal is Portuguese. About 20% of the population speaks English, the other 80% speak little or no English. The Portuguese generally have a better command of the French language than the English language.
The language is very similar to Spanish. The differences can be compared to American English and British English. This could be an opportunity for you as an entrepreneur.

So you can simply be in the Netherlands and pick up the phone there when a customer calls your Portuguese number. Do you want to generate more turnover through the number? Or do you want to show that you are there for the customer with a freephone number? This choice is completely up to you and our specialists are especially ready to help you with this choice.
Freephone
A service number starting with the area code 800 will be for the recipient’s account. With this choice, it costs the caller nothing to call the number. The services allowed for this number are business services and customer service. This toll-free 800 phone number is not tied to any particular city or region. Because it’s free for the caller, they like to grab the phone to call you. A Freephone number can be used perfectly for organizations where something is sold on the basis of the call. Think, for example, of requests for quotations, donations or reservations. The games of chance, dialer and entertainment services are prohibited in Portugal and therefore cannot use a freephone number.
Local number
With a geographic number you tie your brand to a specific city or region. For example, it is possible to take a telephone number in the area code of Lisbon or Porto. This ensures that the local population has more confidence and thus clearly shows which market you want to reach. This option is intended for companies that want to indicate that they will be physically present in the country. But it is also useful for shops that have several visiting addresses.
National number
Using a national number gives your company more options on a national scale. It doesn’t matter what your primary location is, because the national numbers ensure that you have a national identity. Your customers will be able to easily find out where you are located by looking at your contact number, giving your business a better reputation and reliability. As an added benefit, multiple locations can be accessed through one number. This is ideal if you have multiple locations.
