Choosing the Right NIF Service: Coepi vs. E-Residency
E-Residency (e-residency.com) is one of the most visible NIF services online, offering three pricing tiers. NIF Essential (99€), NIF Priority (139€), and NIF Urgent (249€). The service works, but the tiered model means the price climbs quickly if you want your NIF sooner, and fiscal representation renews as a recurring annual fee.

Coepi vs. E-Residency: The Key Differences
The main difference is pricing philosophy. Coepi charges one flat €29.99 including VAT, between 70% and 88% less than E-Residency's tiers, and submits every complete application the same business day, regardless of how much you paid. E-Residency reserves its fastest handling for the most expensive tier and bundles fiscal representation that auto-renews at 99€ per year after the first year.
A Fair Price for a Simple Service
At Coepi, we charge a flat fee of €29,99, including VAT. We believe in radical transparency. The price you see is the price you pay. The NIF itself is issued by the government for a nominal fee, and our charge covers the expert handling, secure processing, and peace of mind.
E-Residency's pricing starts at 99€ for NIF Essential and rises to 249€ for NIF Urgent. Every tier includes fiscal representation that becomes a recurring 99€ annual charge after the first year, a service that, since a 2022 law change, most non-residents no longer need long-term.
The Process: A Side-by-Side Look
Getting your NIF with Coepi is simple:
- 1. Upload your passport and proof of address.
- 2. E-sign the power of attorney online.
- 3. We submit your application the same day. Finanças typically issues your NIF within 7–14 business days.
The process with E-Residency:
- 1. Choose one of three pricing tiers and pay upfront.
- 2. Send your application with your personal details.
- 3. Get verified and wait for processing according to your tier.
- 4. Receive your NIF once the application clears.
