Portugal Granted Over 7,000 Work Visas to Brazilians in First 8 Months of 2024
The statistics show that the number of Brazilians with a work visa in Portugal has increased by 20 per cent for a period from January to August 2024, compared to the same period last year, AtoZSerwisPlus reports.
The number of work visas granted to nationals from Brazil accounts for 33 per cent of the total 22,000 work visas issued to internationals in the first eight months of this year.
According to the figures from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in 2023, Brazilians received a total of 6,000 work visas, accounting for 46 per cent of the total number of these kinds of visas issued to 13,000 immigrants.
Brazilians Eligible to Apply for 2 Additional Visa Categories Since 2022
As part of efforts to deal with labour shortages, in 2022, authorities in Portugal allowed Brazilians to apply for two categories of visas for work purposes:
Digital nomad visa- allowing foreigners to stay legally in Portugal while working remotely for companies or clients outside the country
Job seeker visa- permits internationals to enter and remain in Portugal only to look for a job. The one-entry visa is granted for 120 days, renewable for another 60 days. The visa is eligible for applicants from worldwide countries and does not require a job offer.
Brazilians Subject to Significant Delays for Portugal’s Work Visas
In spite of the surge in interest in Portugal’s work visas, Brazilians are subject to significant delays.
According to local media reports, Brazilians, in some cases, wait for more than four months for their visas to be processed.
Jonas Gutemberg da Silva, from Pernambuco, told Public Brazil that he received the visa on June 26, while the work visa application was submitted on February 20.
Delays in visa processing have brought obstacles to Brazilian nationals who already have job opportunities in Brazil.
Brazilians account for 25 per cent of the foreign population in Portugal. In addition, statistics from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MNE) revealed that an 89 per cent increase was recorded in the number of Portuguese visa applications from Brazilian nationals, between 2022 and 2023.
