1 ⭐️ goes to the website: Quite frankly, navigating through the website was a nightmare. Once the E-visa application form is filled out, the last step is to pick a date/time to be seen at the office. Well, whatever random date i enter came back with the message "Can not schedule during Holiday. Pick another day!" I was never able to get the application submitted because all days of the week were a "HOLIDAY!" According to the site! Highly suggest making the website user friendly, an option to pick from a list of next available appointments would make life easier for everyone!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ goes to the STAFF working in the office. After calling and explaining my issue, they were able to schedule an appointment. We saw Frederico, who was attentive, he carefully looked through the documents to make sure my husband met the requirements to file the Visa. We received a phone call fairly quickly to say the Visa was ready for pick up. Thank you for making it possible for us to travel to Portugal as a family.

Questions & Answers

My Portuguese passport has expired, and I am traveling to Brasil March 1st., how quickly can I renew my Passport? Thank you,

You no longer need a visa to visit Brazil. So you can use your US passport if you have one. Renewing the Portuguese passport is by appointment only. Looking today April 14, first appointment is in October!

2pm

is there any other way to contact someone in the office. I have not received a reply by email, I have sent 3 in 2 weeks. no answer when you call.

Liz Costa | Jun 14, 2022

Unfortunately, the best answer is to keep calling. Relentlessly. You have to keep at it until they answer. Idk if it's out of annoyance that they finally pick up (probably) but that's how I get them. Of course, if you're local, you can try to drop in. The guard downstairs can be a real pain, so unless you let them know ahead of time that you're coming, the guard may not let you go up. Also, do yourself a favor, don't book an appointment the day after a holiday. Trust me, you'll grow gray hairs sitting in the hallway (their waiting room is still closed to the public due to COVID). Hope this helps you!

PLEASE HELP! I SENT MY DOCUMENTS ALL IN OCTOBER 2021 (INCLUDING ORIGINAL PASSPORT) TO ACQUIRE PORTUGUESE CITIZENSHIP AND TODAY NO ONE CONTACTED ME. JUST KNOW THEY CASHED MY MONEY ORDER!

Citizenship is granted by the Ministry of Justice. Inform yourself. There is a specific website. Google it. All requests are sent to the Ministry of Justice in Portugal. Just read!!

Marcilene Moreira | Jan 15, 2022

How to apply for dual citizenship for my daughter

Cid.inacio Inacio | Sep 12, 2021
Phillipe Vieira | Sep 12, 2021

You'll need to make an appointment at the Consulate closest to your residence and bring the following: an original birth certificate for your daughter and your (assuming you are a Portuguese citizen) proof of citizenship. If you are not already registered at the Consulate, you'll also need to provide your Portuguese nationality docs (birth certificate, cartão do cidadão, passport, etc.).

My Portuguese passport has expired and I need to renew it and I’m traveling to Portugal the end of this year how quickly can I get mine done and where do I go

Idalia Barroso | Sep 12, 2021
Debora Melo | Sep 12, 2021

You don't need your passport as long as you have your cartão de cidadão valid. If you are not an American citizen and have a green card than you need a valid passport to travel. You need to go to the Portuguese Consulate in Boston. You need to make an appointment online. Once you have the appointment and go you will have your passport in less than 2 weeks.

Hello, My mother has her paperwork to do proof of life that we need to have you review an certify. Are you doing appointment? And if so how do I set one up for my mom? Thanks, Joe Santos

Jose Andre | Sep 12, 2021
Rafael Coelho Lopes de Sá | Sep 12, 2021

In the confirmation email you received, click on "View appointment details". One of the options available on the website of the link is precisely to cancel.

Good morning, I have Portuguese origins. What are the steps to become a Portuguese Citizen. I'm Brazilian and I die in the USA.

Joseph Viegas | Sep 12, 2021
Raquel Silva | Sep 12, 2021

Good morning if you have Portuguese origins the process will be easier. It is best to go to the Portuguese consulate and there you will be informed of everything you have to do

Good afternoon I was wondering if it is possible to get health insurance at the consulate to qualify for health care in the United States. I live in Quincy temporarily I have a European passport citizen card

Maria Alcinda Monteiro | Sep 13, 2019
Panda Girl | Sep 13, 2019

Hello, so you have nothing to do one thing with another. Health insurance here in the United States is done in the public agencies of the United States. You have to look for clinics, hospitals that do it in your city. I hope I have helped hugs

Hi! Do I need a visa to spend couple days in Portugal. With my Green Card?

J.P. M. | Sep 13, 2019
Cristina Breder | Sep 12, 2020

If you are Brazilian, you will need the Brazilian passport to enter Portugal. Brazilian citizens so far do not need a visa to enter Portugal. As for your green card, it has no value in Europe.

Where do I get my Birth Certificate

Nelson Pereira | Sep 13, 2019
Phillipe Vieira | Sep 13, 2019

If you were born in the US, you can get it at your local town hall. If you're a Portuguese citizen, you can request one at the Consulate.

why is the number on the web site out of service???

Maria Dias | Sep 13, 2019
Paula Pina | Sep 13, 2019

Don't waste your time to call them because they dont answer it anyway. Everything they do now it's electronic.

Daniella Gomes-Miranda | Sep 13, 2019
Michael d'Amaral | Sep 13, 2019

I found the best way to communicate with the Consulate General of Portugal is by email and by showing up first thing in the morning. You can get the hours of operation on the website or Google. What you need most is patience, because everything moves very slow. All I tell you is good luck.

Hello, good morning, could you please inform me how many days the passport is ready?

Regina Santos | Sep 13, 2019
Maria Carreiro-Luis | Sep 13, 2019
