Worst experience for applying tourist visa. Avoid Portugal, they don’t want you to come. If you want to get Schengen visa, go to France and Spain, they are fast and prompt cos you will get your visa in 2days., I regretted deeply now. I have submitted the application for 2 weeks(according to the FEDEX’s notice, I called(directly to the voice mail), emailed for the status and got no responses. Called Vfs, they said they can’t contact the consular. Not only my missed my important meeting, But also I am stuck in the USA cos I can’t get my passport back. And I don’t know where it is. The Vfs said the normal time is 1-2 months. Also I went to the consulate in person and I happened to find out that there are only 3 pickups available for the day. How slow they can be! Run run run!

If I could give no stars I would. The man at the front desk saw what documents I had said I was okay to get my passport renewed sent me to get a money order just for me to be declined the ability to renew my passport. No one here knows what they are doing and everyone is lazy and doesn’t want to work I highly recommend going to Newark over this location as they don’t do anything right as you see from the many 1 star reviews

The consulate, whether its NYC or Newark. Will answer emails questions. Just give them a day or so I would call them first thing in morning between 9:30-10:30 keep calling until they answer.

Yes, but you will first need to renew your expired Citizen Card, then (after you receive your new Citizen Card) set up a second appointment to renew your expired passport.

I have my BI (citizenship card) of Portugal. I would like to collect my passport of portugal in New York. What documents do I need to bring to collect my passport. Regards Henry Pereira

Henry Pereira | Oct 13, 2019
Alexandre Encarnacao | Oct 13, 2019

BI ou Cartão de Cidadão válido, passaporte anterior, válido ou não e $87.75 USD cash ou money order. You will need to make an appointment, otherwise you won't even pass security at the lobby. The appointment has to be made online, on the website, or through the representative in your area of residence. You cannot do it over the phone. I tried. You will find all the information on the website. Once on it follow the appropriate links. Type portugalnewyork.org/contactos on the address bar of your browser. Tip: they have limited personnel, so the appointments are also limited and they only allow scheduling for 3 months from the present time, so if you are unable to find an available date, you will need to keep trying every day until you do, or find the representative in your area. You will find the info on the page given above. Good luck.
