It is now possible to request Portuguese Nationality online

Since 14 June it is already possible to request Portuguese nationality online for all the situations foreseen by law. The online application can only be made by a lawyer or solicitor.

The service was launched in February 2023, but was only available for those who have been legally living in Portugal for at least 5 years and for those who have been married or living in a non-marital partnership with a person of Portuguese citizenship for more than 3 years. Now, the online service is available for all cases of application for Portuguese nationality.

To apply online, the lawyer or solicitor must authenticate him/herself with the certificate of the professional order and needs to have the digital signature with professional attributes active.
