Family Reunification

For whom it is intended:

Reunification for family members of European Union citizens is aimed at foreign family members of Portuguese citizens and holders of the CRUE.

Eligible family members are:

The spouse or partner;

Minor or incapacitated children (natural or adopted) financially dependent on the main applicant, spouse/partner or couple;
Unmarried children (natural or adopted) over the age of 21, financially dependent on the main applicant, spouse/partner or couple, and enrolled in a higher education programme or school in Portugal;
Parents and parents-in-law over 65 or under 65 if financially dependent on the main applicant, spouse/partner or couple;
Underage siblings if they are under guardianship granted by the competent authority of the country of origin, provided that this decision is legally accepted in Portugal.

Notes: Children adopted by the main applicant, spouse/partner or couple are eligible, provided that the law of that country grants adopted children the same rights and duties as a natural child and that the decision is legally accepted in Portugal.

Requirements:

The application for a residence permit always requires proof of family ties.

Process

Step 1 – Booking an appointment at SEF

The parent of a Portuguese citizen must go to SEF – Portuguese Immigration and Borders Service – to apply for a residence permit. At this point, their biometric data (photograph, fingerprints and signature) will be taken.

Step 2 – Residence card issuance

1-3 months after the appointment, the residence card will be sent to your address in Portugal.
