Working in Portugal

Possible country route: Highly qualified work residence / EU Blue Card. A local skilled role can use a highly qualified work route where the conditions are met. A remote-work or passive-income route is a different application.

Consular and AIMA appointment/decision times vary. Check the route and competent office; a fixed processing window is not available here.

What to check before applying
  1. Confirm the employment route. Ask about highly qualified work, EU Blue Card or the certified-employer Tech Visa route.
  2. Prepare official documents. Check the contract, qualification, translations and entry-visa requirements with the consulate.
  3. Follow AIMA residence steps. Use current AIMA instructions and appointment channels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the NHR regime in Portugal?

Do not assume the earlier NHR regime is available to new arrivals. IFICI is a separate incentive with qualifying activities, employers and registration requirements. Check the Portuguese tax authority and assess your circumstances before relying on relief.

Is English widely spoken in Portugal's tech industry?

Yes. Lisbon's startup and tech scene operates almost entirely in English. Major companies like Farfetch, Feedzai, and Unbabel have their hubs there. Portuguese is useful for daily life but not required for most tech roles.

What visa options exist for non-EU workers in Portugal?

Possible routes include highly qualified work residence, the EU Blue Card and certified-employer Tech Visa. Confirm the correct entry and residence steps with the consulate and AIMA. Appointment and decision times vary.
