Declaration of Non-Application of Sanctions (Declaração de Não Aplicação de Sanções)

Social Security (Segurança Social) declaration on whether fines and other sanctions have been applied for failure to comply with legal obligations.

What it is for

  • Respond to tenders or contracts that specifically require this declaration.
  • Consult the history of declarations issued.
  • Provide proof regarding sanctions separately from proof regarding debts.
Example (fictitious). Gorila Obras receives tender specifications requiring this declaration and, separately, proof of contribution status. It requests each one individually and submits both separately.

What it is

This declaration certifies whether Social Security (Segurança Social) has applied fines or other sanctions for failure to comply with legal obligations, within the scope and period consulted. It is a separate document: it is not equivalent to proof of contribution status and does not guarantee the absence of sanctions applied by other bodies. Read it before submitting it, to check that it meets the requirement.

How we collect it

We need the holder's NISS and Social Security Direct (Segurança Social Direta) password, and the SMS code when the portal requests it. We deliver the PDF of the declaration.

Access required: Social Security Online (Segurança Social Direta). Credentials are encrypted only during the collection and deleted at the end.

Things to note

Do not conclude from this declaration that there are no debts, nor treat it as a general guarantee of good standing or of the absence of sanctions from other bodies.

Frequently asked questions

Is it the same as the no-debt declaration?

No. Sanctions and contribution status are separate matters, with different declarations.

Is it valid before all public bodies?

No. It covers Social Security and whatever the document itself states.
