STAGE 1 RESIDENCY / VISAS
As of April 1, 2022, fixed price visa service starts at 450€ + tax for the first applicant, with discounts for family members. In 2020-2021, we did not charge for minors to obtain visas due to the uncertainty of the pandemic making Family Reunification policy unpredictable. For contracts starting in 2022, we will resume charging for minors (20% of adult rate).
- Visa service includes booking visa appointments (VFS, evisa, consulate), NIFs for each applicant, opening a bank account, document preparation, review, videoconferencing calls across the timeline, translating documents to Portuguese, and reference letter.
- Our visa service also includes one rescheduling of immigration appointments, preparing clients for their first residence permit request (first immigration appointment), arranging airport transfers, and two hours of orientation (pre-landing or post-landing, either in person or online).
Housing searches are charged separately. Our lawyer offers a contract review service for 115€ + IVA per contract (our visa clients receive a 50% discount).
We will provide a quote to include assistance with shipment of household goods (Baggage Certificate and post-arrival documentation), driving license exchange, and immigration appointment preparation.
APPLICATION REVIEWS
For those who need only reviews of their application and assistance in a specific area of the application, hourly billing is available at the same rate as a consultation. The call is focused on recommendations. When booking the call, please indicate that the call is for an application review and details for the review procedure will be sent with the receipt for payment.
STAGE 2 RESIDENCY / PERMITS
In 2022, you will have an option to combine services in one contract, when previously it was per-hour billing only for Stage 2. Please inquire at initial consultation.
AD-HOC SERVICE / PER-HOUR BILLING
Ad hoc billing can cover any service except NIFs and bank accounts, which are only bundled with the fixed-fee visa service. Billing depends on the specific service and whether the service is handled by a junior (15€/hr), senior (40€/hr), or consultant (61€/hr). Contract reviews by our lawyers are 115€ per contract. Please contact us to inquire.
MOST post-arrival services ARE ON A fixed-fee basis
Please contact us to request our current rate sheet for assistance with rescheduling immigration appointments, home searches and post-landing services such as booking and attending appointments with clients at SEF, Finanças, IMT, Junta de Freguesia, Centro da Saúde et al.
