Portugal Tax Residency Test
Portugal counts 183 days across any rolling 12-month period, not within the calendar year. A single stay spanning a year end can therefore create residence in a year your calendar-year day count would suggest is safe.

Day count
What is the highest number of days you spent in Portugal in any rolling 12-month period beginning or ending in this tax year?
This is deliberately not a calendar-year figure. Take the worst 12-month window — for example 1 September to 31 August — rather than 1 January to 31 December. A partial day of presence counts as a day.
