The consular post

Honorary Consulate: what does this post do?

An Honorary Consul can be either a Portuguese citizen or a foreigner who is not a diplomat but lives in the city where the Consulate operates. They are appointed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to represent and protect the interests of the Portuguese State and its citizens in a city without official representation. Ordinarily, Honorary Consulates are not authorized to perform consular acts. However, in certain special circumstances, they may be authorized to conduct voter registration, civil registration, notary acts and issue travel documents. Honorary consuls work within their competence, under the guidance of the Head of the Mission to whom they report.

What are the Portuguese formalities to relocate to Portugal?

Portugal offers several visa options for those looking to relocate from Morocco. Before applying for any visa, you’ll need to obtain two essential items.

  • Portuguese Tax Number (NIF): a unique tax identification number required for financial transactions in Portugal. You can obtain it at any tax office or through a fiscal representative.

  • Portuguese Bank Account: major banks include Millennium BCP, Novo Banco and Santander. We can help you get a bank account in Portugal.

The main visa types available from Morocco:

The application usually goes through the Portuguese consulate of your home country if you are not from Morocco. Most visas first grant temporary residence, which can lead to permanent residence after five years. Requirements and processing times change: check them before applying.
