What does this mean for someone whose visa expired on 19th December 2022, but has an appointment with sef on Feb 9? Does this apply?

@dee_irorere,

If you already have an appointment, lucky you. You must go to SEF on the scheduled day, obviously.

Note that this online renewal is for those who already have a residence visa, and that visa has already expired and could not get an appointment due to difficulties in contacting SEF. In this case, you will have to register on the SEF website and make the request to renew your visa.

@kadhimal,

Why do you need more details ?... Read it carefully...

Any word on if this also applies to tourist visas? Our daughter, a university student, arrived in Portugal with us in July, and stayed with us as a tourist until the beginning of September.

Then, she left to Germany to attend University there as an exchange student. There, she was issued a 鈥淶usatzblatt鈥� (residence permit) that gave her permission to reside in Germany until the end of February. She will be flying to Lisbon on February 22. Does Decree-Law No. 90/2022 mean she can legally stay with us in Lisbon? Her student housing back in the US won鈥檛 let her move in until May 1, 2023. She can stay with family in the US until that date, but we would rather she stayed with us here in Lisbon, if that is allowed under Decree-Law No. 90/2022.

Any thoughts or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So i've just learnt - don鈥檛 know if this is worth anyone knowing if you have a SEF appointment & can鈥檛 find your documents, you should still go to the SEF meeting with your passport on the date & your then given 10-days to get everything together. BUT if you have to reschedule the appointment for whatever reason, you will be put to the back of the line & might end up waiting 1-year to get a new appointment. So my tip is make sure you attend!!

So what happened? Normally the airline is supposed to control only identity on an intra Schengen flight.

Decreto lei 90/2022

Os documentos e vistos relativos 脿 辫别谤尘补苍锚苍肠颈补 em territ贸rio nacional, cuja validade

expire a partir da data de entrada em vigor do presente decreto-lei ou nos 15 dias imediatamente

anteriores, s茫o aceites, nos mesmos termos, 补迟茅 31 de dezembro de 2023.

A tourist visa is not 辫别谤尘补苍锚苍肠颈补 so the decreto lei does not apply to it.

The German visa does not concern territ贸rio nacional so the decreto lei does not apply to it.

Assuming she has no favored nationality or right to residence for particular reason like being married, she is an illegal alien.

The practical consequence is null. I don't think the police would do anything in the case of routine control. If she does something wrong, she can be expelled all the same with or without a visa.

Please argue if you like.

There is some confusion. SEF does not deal with visas but only residence permits. A visa is something delivered by an embassy allowing you to enter the country for a few months. A residence permit is something delivered by the SEF to somebody who is already in Portugal and plans to stay for years. "Golden visa" is very misleading and anyway Portugal has decided to stop it.

I already posted this in another thread, but as it bears on the subject here -- the following edict appears to provide another extension like the one described in the top post, this time to summer of 2025.

Which is to say, it looks like deadlines are now end of next June.聽 For various things.聽 I'd check to verify that your visa is included, but probably is.聽 Could be a major tangle at that time, if there aren't further revisions to that schedule.

And they're going to hire maybe ("补迟茅") 300 more staff to work on it.

Documents and visas relating to stay in national territory, which expired from 22 February 2020, are valid until 30 June 2025 and are accepted by Portuguese public authorities, for all legal purposes.
