This service is only for couples where at least one spouse is a Portuguese citizen. If neither of you is, a marriage abroad doesn't need registering in Portugal. Book a free call and we'll tell you what applies to you.

No, not yet
Yes, it's registered or in progress

If your marriage is already registered, you don't need this service. If a process was started and has stalled, book a free call and we'll look at it with you.

No, or the divorce is already recognised in Portugal
Yes, and it isn't recognised in Portugal yet
Not sure

A divorce from abroad has to be recognised by a Portuguese court before the new marriage can be registered. That's a separate court procedure, quoted separately. Book a free call and we'll explain the steps and the cost.
