How can I get my Portuguese birth certificate?

How can i get a duplicate portuguese birth certificate without going to Portugal?

  • My boyfriend has lost all his ID and passport and is trying to get a duplicate but needs a birth certificate from Portugal. He can't travel to get it so is there anyway of ordering one to be sent to Britain?

  • Answer:

    Go to the following link. You can request a birth certifcate and pay using a credit card. You do however have to know which "conservatoria" the birth has been registered. Any Portuguese national born outside of Portugal will have the birth registerd at "Registos Centrais de Lisboa", but if you are born in Portugal then the birth will be registered in that particular town. I use the website all the time to get birth certifcates for me and my family. http://www.portaldocidadao.pt/PORTAL/entidades/MJ/DGRN/pt/SER_pedido+de+certidao+de+nascimento.htm

Ask in the Internet at www.portaldocidadao.pt. Notice that you need a credit card to complete the transaction and some UK cards are refused, I don't know why.

The easisest way is to contact the Portuguese consulate in your city. Look in the White Pages for this, or you can search online for "Portugal consul + the name of your city". The consulate will have a website, or you can phone them. The first thing you must ask is what kind of identification you will need. They will ask whether you have reported the loss of the passport. The consulate should be able to issue you with temporary documents, or they will contact the appropriate department in Portugal, who will send you what you need. Otherwise, they should give you full instructions about what to do. Someone there will also be able to speak Portuguese. Good luck

You can do it one of two ways: If he still has relatives in Portugal all they have to do is go to the local Registo office and request a birth certificate for him. It takes about 2 days and is not expensive. They can then post it to him. Alternatively there is a website where you can do this yourself and you pay through the website and then they send you the certificate. If you contact the Portuguese Consulate they will give you the website address. Sunshine
