What the application and the payment request required

Status of the call

The application window of the second phase was open until 27 July 2026 at 17:59 at the latest, and it has ended. This page describes, in the past tense, what the notice required; it does not invite anyone to apply.

At the application

At the application, the beneficiary provided the tax identification number (NIF) and the IBAN of an account in the beneficiary's name.

After approval

Once the availability of an incentive for the typology and compliance with the eligibility conditions were verified, the applicant was notified of the approval by e-mail. From the notification, the applicant had 3 months to accept the Termo de Aceitação and submit the payment request with the required documents. A beneficiary who did not accept the Termo de Aceitação or did not submit the payment request in time lost the right to the incentive.

The documents of the payment request

For a purchased vehicle, the payment request included the purchase invoice and proof of payment dated after 1 January 2025, in the beneficiary's name, stating the chassis or frame number where applicable, and, where applicable, proof of registration in the beneficiary's favour through the Documento Único Automóvel or an equivalent document.

For typology 1 the payment request included proof of the scrapping of a fossil-fuel car more than 10 years old in the beneficiary's name; the scrapping had to have occurred after 1 January 2023 and the scrapped vehicle had to be of the same category as the vehicle acquired.

For a vehicle put into consumption under financial leasing, instead of the invoice and proof of payment, a complete copy of the contract was submitted, explicitly stating the financial leasing classification, a minimum duration of 24 months and a date after 1 January 2025, in the beneficiary's name and identifying the vehicle by chassis number and registration, together with proof that the beneficiary already had possession of the vehicle through a delivery record or an equivalent document. This page does not say whether the incentives ran out before the window ended or whether a new call will be published.
