🇵🇹 Portugal · Insurance
Insurance in Portugal — health, travel, and digital-nomad cover, what is mandatory, and how to choose a plan.
Portugal's social-security system (Segurança Social) provides pensions and social insurance, funded by employer and employee contributions. Beyond the public health service, motor third-party liability insurance is compulsory for vehicles, and tenants/owners often hold home insurance. Insurers and pension funds are supervised by the ASF (Insurance and Pension Funds Supervisory Authority).
