Portuguese Citizen Marrying a Foreigner

Hi everyone,

@ Abdallaalzoghby, If you have the official information, could you please post it on the forum itself so that other members in the same situation might as well benefit from your inputs ?

Thanks in advance,
Bhavna

Hi there
maybe I am a bit late to provide the advice that you need but we had a similar situation.
We ended up getting married before we came and I was automatically a resident. So if you are sure that you are going to marry, then why hesitate. Just do it and the problem is solved. You can always have another ceremony with family later.
However, if you want to wait then I would suggest that you contact the nearest Portuguese embassy or the SEF

as soon as you arrive.

Hmm as non-EU citizen who moved to Portugal because of a marriage with my Portuguese husband, what we did was I was here on tourist visa already (as my passport  type was allowing me to stay in EU countries 3 months at a time as tourist), and we got married in the related portuguese authority, only after then we applied for resident permit.

Hi everyone,

My fiancee is non-EU & she will move to Portugal after studying. We plan to marry next year. How long after marry will it take for her to get a residence permit? Also can she work in Portugal after marry?

Thanks

My wife is Portuguese (holding Portugal citizen), we plan to move to Lisbon, but I am non-EU citizen.
What is the procedure to apply the resident permit?
THANKS!
