This service is available across Portugal

Who Can Benefit from this Service?

Our Portugal visa refusal appeal service is specifically designed for individuals who have received a visa refusal from the Portuguese authorities and are seeking to appeal this decision.
It is ideal for applicants who believe that the refusal decision was unjust and that they have substantial grounds, supported by Portuguese immigration laws, to overturn this decision.

Prerequisites

Receipt of an official refusal notice from the Portuguese authorities, explicitly stating the reasons for the visa denial.
An in-depth evaluation to identify strong grounds for appeal, in accordance with the reasons provided for the visa refusal, referencing specific articles and provisions within the Portuguese Immigration Law (Lei de Estrangeiros – Lei n.º 23/2007 de 4 de Julho) that may support the appeal.
Preparation of a comprehensive dossier, including any additional documentation that directly addresses the refusal reasons, underlined by relevant legal statutes.

Document Preparation: Collating necessary documentation and drafting a robust appeal letter, anchored in the legal framework governing visa refusals and appeals, such as the procedural norms outlined in the Regulatory Decree No. 84/2007 of 5 November.
Legal Submission: Filing the appeal with the competent administrative court or authority, as stipulated under Article 26-A of the Lei de Estrangeiros, which allows for administrative or judicial review of visa refusal decisions.
