Ordem dos Técnicos Oficiais de Contas

Ordem dos Técnicos Oficiais de Contas (OTOC) is a professional organization responsible for regulating the accountancy practice in Portugal. OTOC runs an admittance examination every four months and everyone that passes it becomes a Técnico Oficial de Contas (TOC), the authorized tax and accountancy practitioner in Portugal.

OTOC, which is the largest Portuguese professional body, with more than 75,000 affiliates, offers a broad range of training programs to its members, and is an active member in the public discussion of accounting and finance issues.

OTOC is not to be confused with Ordem dos Revisores Oficiais de Contas (OROC), a separate organisation which confers the national qualification for auditors (ROC).[1]

Membership of international bodies

OTOC is a member of CILEA - Comité de Integração Latino-Americana^{[citation needed]} and of IFAC - International Federation of Accountants.^[1]
