But there will be a 3.5 % decrease in electricity on the regulated market.\"&nbsp;<\/em>notes the&nbsp;<strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jn.pt\/economia\/interior\/o-que-fica-mais-barato-e-mais-caro-em-2019-10380715.html\" target=\"_blank\">Jornal de Not\u00edcias<\/a>,<\/strong>&nbsp;taking over an information from the news agency Lusa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The daily newspaper lists the increases that will affect the Portuguese, but also expatriates or those who would like to settle in Portugal. Here are the main ones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Rents:<\/strong> +1.15 %. A higher increase than in previous years (1.12 % in 2018, 0.54 % in 2017, 0.16 % in 2016).<\/li><li><b>Tolls:<\/b>&nbsp;+0.88 %.<\/li><li><b>Public transportation:<\/b>&nbsp;+1.14 %.<\/li><li><b>The single circulation tax (IUC) and the vehicle tax (ISV):<\/b> a priori +1.3 %. These will be updated according to the WLTP homologation. This determines the taxation of cars according to their consumption and CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;and other fine polluting particles.<\/li><li><b>Tobacco:<\/b> a priori +10 centimes. This increase is also due to the increase of 5 cents of the tax paid by producers, provided in the state budget this year. Thus, a pack of cigarettes, whose price is now 4.90 euros should soon cost 5 euros.<\/li><li><b>Sugary drinks:<\/b> will be more expensive because of the increased taxes they are subject to. The new prices for soft drinks will be based on their sugar content per liter. A can of Red Bull, for example, will increase by 0.76 cents.<\/li><li><strong>Telecommunications:<\/strong> The operators NOS and MEO have announced that they will increase their tariffs due to inflation. Vodafone has not yet decided.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, the\u00a0<em>Jornal de Not\u00edcias\u00a0<\/em>states that\u00a0<em>\"the price of electricity on the regulated market has fallen by 3.5 % for consumers since 1<sup>er<\/sup>\u00a0January\". E<\/em>t of 0.6 % in the autonomous regions of the Azores and Madeira. In the open market, the Galp and Endesa groups. Have announced reductions of 2.6 % and 6.3 %, respectively. This is the largest decrease in electricity prices since 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/GUIDES-EXPATRIATION-PORTUGAL-1024x576.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"EXPATRIATION GUIDES PORTUGAL\" class=\"wp-image-4292\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-align:center\">DISCOVER OUR GUIDES DEDICATED TO EXPATRIATION<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-dark-gray-color has-background has-vivid-cyan-blue-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/nos-guides-expatriation\/\">READ<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since January 1, several price increases have come into effect<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","neve_meta_reading_time":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"CE QUI VA AUGMENTER EN 2019 AU #PORTUGAL #CONSOMMATION\n\nDepuis le 1er janvier, plusieurs hausses des prix sont entr\u00e9es en vigueur ...","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3688","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fiscalite-des-francais-au-portugal"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/vie-au-portugal.jpg?fit=1200%2C900&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3688","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3688"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3688\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3688"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3688"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivreauportugalconsulting.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3688"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
