Foreign Marriage Registration

Registration of a foreign marriage in Portugal, including document review, application preparation, submission support and monitoring.

Foreign Divorce Registration — no court recognition required

€695

Registration of an eligible foreign divorce in Portugal where no separate court-recognition proceedings are required.

VAT may apply. Price unit remains subject to the written quote where the current service register does not state one.

Questions we hear

Does Legal include every legal question connected to a move?

No. The public Legal area is limited to the three matters listed here. Immigration and citizenship remain separate service areas, and other legal questions require a separately confirmed scope and responsible professional.

Is every foreign divorce registered without court proceedings?

No. The listed registration service is available only where the divorce is already recognised in Portugal or does not require separate court recognition. Any required recognition proceedings are separately assessed and quoted.

Are court and authority fees included?

No, unless a written quote expressly states otherwise. Government, court, certification, translation and other third-party costs are separate.
