A municipal surcharge (derrama municipal) of up to 1.5% may apply depending on the municipality. A state surcharge (derrama estadual) applies to taxable profits above €1.5 million at progressive rates (3–9%). Portugal has an extensive treaty network (79 treaties) and participates in the EU Parent-Subsidiary Directive for intra-EU dividend flows. The Madeira International Business Centre (MIBC) offers reduced rates for qualifying companies operating in the Madeira Free Zone.
