Process
How it works
Three steps, from first contact to follow-up of the matter.
02
Consultation
The consultation is in person, at the Lisbon office, or online, and lasts 30 to 45 minutes. That is when the path forward is confirmed.
03
Follow-up
If you accept the service, the documents are organised and the process is followed with the competent authorities, with updates at each stage.
