What you get when you open this process

• Your exact document list

  AIMA spreads the requirements across many pages and links. We decode them into the precise set your situation needs — no guessing which of the rules apply to you.

• Each document checked before you submit

  Dates, expiry and legibility, so problems surface early — not at the counter.

• Declarations ready to sign

  The statements you have to write yourself, filled in from a guided form and downloaded as a proper Portuguese document.

• A ready-to-deliver pack

  Everything in order, bilingual, for the AIMA counter.

• A heads-up if the rules change

  If AIMA updates the requirements while your case is open, you'll know what changed.
