In good hands
Rauva have helped us set up our company in Portugal and from start to finish the service was impeccable. We had our first meeting with Ana, our designated accountant since the company's incorporation and the call was very helpful. Ana answered all our questions with clarity and precision. I've had experience with local accountants and lawyers and Rauva, so far, comes out on top. It's comforting to know that they will help us along the way.

Ana and Caterina from Rauva have completely revolutionized my experience of setting up a company in Portugal, and the Rauva dashboard is a game-changer for entrepreneurs.

The Rauva dashboard is not just a tool – it's a comprehensive business management solution that simplifies everything from company registration to creating a bank account and hiring an accountant. The real-time updates, crystal-clear direction, and seamless navigation made what could have been a complicated process feel incredibly straightforward.
What truly sets Rauva apart is how Ana and Caterina seamlessly blend personal support with cutting-edge digital technology. While the dashboard is impressive on its own, their personal touch ensures that you never feel lost. They were always available to answer questions and provide guidance, complementing the platform's incredible features.

Thanks Maria
In addition to being friendly and approachable, she was very professional. She answered all my questions and helped me feel confident in my choice. Thank you very much
Accounting made easy
We have been customer of Rauva since day 1 (the test phase). Rauva is a great app and has saved us a lot of time in managing our accounting. Personally I don't like any admin, but Rauva has facilitated this task so much for me that I am starting to like it more.
You can tell that this is an innovating, growing company that works with talented people.
What stands out for me especially about Rauva is that they are very accessible whenever I need help. The accountant is knowledgeable and hands-on. The support team helped me with Shopify and invoice integration. They are just one mail away, and reply quickly. They seem to go the extra mile.
I just hope that their rapid growth won't affect their accessible and personal customer service - that we won't become 'just a number' over time.
Rauva Accounting kick of meeting
Ana was super understanding of my situation, offered honest and sincere advice and inspired confidence that my accounting needs are in good hands. Her command of English is superb which further adds to my confidence in Ana and her expertise.

Portuguese accounting made easier
Let's face it, accounting and taxes in Portugal are relatively complex. Rauva make it as hassle free as possible, their platform makes life a accounting a easier, and is unique in Portugal, plus it's being actively developed so new features and improvements are added all the time. Also we really like both the on-boarding team and the accountants, Maria in particular has been super helpful.
Great Support
It was a great experience, professional, clear and objective. I'm glad to have Ana Balcão managing Electro Light Connection financial responsibilities.
