Some taxes depend on whether you are classed as a resident or not. You will be considered resident if you spend more than 183 days in Portugal during the tax year (01 Jan-31 Dec); it does not have to be consecutive. You may also be considered resident if you own property and pay taxes in Portugal.
Council Tax - "CIIVII-Código do Imposto Municipal sobre Imóveis" (formely Contribuição Autárquica)
This is like UK rates and is determined by two factors; the rateable value of your home and the percentage rate set by the council.
Council rates for each town have recently been reduced from 0.7-1.3% to 0.4.-0.8% accordingly.
