Frequently asked questions
Do I need a lawyer to apply for a visa or residence permit?
It is not mandatory. A lawyer can help confirm that you meet the requirements, prepare your documents and follow up with the consulate or AIMA, reducing the risk of an incomplete application.
Are consultations held in person?
Yes. Consultations take place in person in the city of Entroncamento, by appointment booked through WhatsApp. In exceptional cases, for example if you are not yet in Portugal, the consultation can take place by video call.
What documents should I have for the first consultation?
Your passport, current visa or residence card (if any), and any relevant documents such as employment contracts, proof of income, or letters from AIMA or your employer.
How much does it cost?
Fees depend on the type of case and its complexity. They are set out before any work begins, after the first contact.
How long does a residence permit application take?
Processing times depend on AIMA or the consulate and vary a lot by application type and time of year. Timelines cannot be guaranteed, but we follow your case and keep you informed of each development.
I was dismissed or have unpaid wages. What should I do?
Keep all documents (contract, payslips, letters and messages) and seek advice as soon as possible: some legal deadlines to challenge a dismissal are short.
