Hello guys,
I have been trying to find out exactly about healthcare requirements to move to Portugal.
Our situation is a bit different than a lot of members of the forum or i cannot find the information i really need to know.
Our situation is this:
I am EU citizen, My wife American. From what i was able to find out so far which isnt much, Since i am a EU citizen (living in the US right now) we don't need to go thru the visa application and we could just arrive in Portugal with all the papers we will need eventually as marriage license, bank statements etc..Once in Portugal apply for a NIF card and for SNS. Also open a local bank account.
If i am correct after that is done we go and apply for healthcare at a local office?
I want to be extra sure that this is the way we can have healthcare and dont need to spend hundreds of $ on private care.
Thank you,
David
