Doors close in Portugal for Brazilians without visas starting tomorrow

Starting tomorrow, Brazilians without visas in Portugal will no longer have access to regularization in the country. President António José Seguro promulgated the law that establishes this new rule, after obtaining the necessary constitutional approval for its implementation.

The measure represents a significant change in Portuguese migration policy regarding Brazilian citizens. Until now, there were mechanisms that allowed regularization even for those who were without a valid visa in Portuguese territory.

With the entry into force of the new law, the doors of regularization close for Brazilians who do not have a visa. This restriction mainly affects those who entered Portugal through other means and sought to regularize their migratory status through other procedures.
