Aima Portugal Announces Important Updates on Residency Renewal Process
Lisbon, Portugal — Aima Portugal has announced key updates regarding the renewal of residency permits for foreign residents. The changes come as part of efforts by the Portuguese government to simplify and accelerate the renewal process.
Starting immediately, applicants can submit their residency renewal requests online through the SEF (Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras) official portal, reducing the need for in-person visits. After submitting their application, residents will receive an automatic appointment for biometric data collection.
Applicants are reminded to prepare all necessary documents, including proof of address, valid identification, and evidence of income or employment, to avoid delays.
Aima Portugal is committed to supporting its members throughout this process, offering guidance and assistance to ensure a smooth renewal experience.
Residents are advised to apply well before their current permits expire and to keep all confirmation receipts for their records.
For the latest information, stay tuned to official SEF announcements and Aima Portugal communications.
