Portugal is a sovereign state in Europe with a population of over 10 million people and an area of 92,212 km2. It is a developed country with a high-income advanced economy and stunning architecture that reflects its history of invasions. Portugal is a member of the United Nations, the European Union, NATO, and the Schengen Zone, meaning that travellers can apply for a Portuguese Schengen Visa to enter the country and the rest of the Schengen territory. Amid the Coronavirus outbreak, Italy and other EU/Schengen Area members imposed an entry ban on third-country nationals in mid-March 2020, and entry restrictions to Italy are constantly changing based on the COVID-19 situation in other countries. Non-EEA travellers wishing to visit Portugal must present a valid passport or travel document, issued within the last ten years and valid for at least three more months beyond the planned exit date from Portugal/Schengen, and a visa if subject to the Portuguese visa regime. Portuguese border officers may ask a few questions about the travellers’ trip, and they may be asked for documents to support their answers, such as an invitation letter or proof of lodging. The required documents for a Portuguese Schengen Visa application include a Portuguese visa application form, two passport photos, a valid passport, copies of previous visas, a round-trip flight itinerary, proof of accommodation, proof of sufficient financial means, a cover letter, proof of civil status, and Portugal travel health insurance coverage. Travel insurance policies for foreigners travelling to Portugal that fulfil the Portuguese visa requirements can be purchased online from Europ Assistance or MondialCare. Additional Portuguese visa requirements may be requested based on the travellers’ employment status, purpose of entry to Portugal, and for minors travelling to Portugal. The nationals of some countries under the Schengen visa regime may need a Portugal Airport Transit Visa, while others may require a Portugal Transit Visa or a Portugal Tourist Visa for short stays.
