I greet all the Portuguese nationals, in particular all of those that reside in the jurisdiction area of The Consulate General of London. This Consulate General exists to serve the Portuguese Community, which is, therefore, the foundation and purpose of its existence.
A very warm welcome to the new Online Portal of the Consulate General of Portugal in London. It’s remodelling is part of a plethora of changes in action, which are designed to assure the capacity and the quality of the consular responses to our Community, as well as, the conditions of the service to our beneficiaries and the work of our employees.
Throughout the past year, the functioning conditions of the Consulate General in London have been progressively altered. Amongst the changes already implemented, the most visible and with the largest impact include the new booking system – Centro de Atendimento Consular / Brexit Helpline – and the recent opening of the new Citizen Area, dedicated to travel and identification documents.
With this Portal, you will find information that you may find helpful, including all the information regarding the services provided by the Consulate General in London, the Outreach Consular Visits that have been reinforced and updated information concerning the departure of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
I would like to also, given the current context of uncertainty about the future of the Brexit process, to transmit a message of tranquillity. It is the Consulate’s duty to provide services of Public Administration, namely, identification and travel documents. To each and every Portuguese Citizen who lives in the United Kingdom, it is their duty to comply with the obligations before the authorities of their host country.
Under the prospect that the United Kingdom withdraws from the European Union, the European Union Settlement Scheme is in progress, which Portuguese residents in the United Kingdom will need to apply for. Make sure that you are in possession of valid Identification, and apply as soon as possible for the Settled Status or the pre-Settled Status in the United Kingdom.
