Expats Portugal

This is what community looks like 🇵🇹

Members who have just arrived in Portugal sharing their experiences…
Others who’ve been here longer offering support and reassurance…

All helping each other along the way, forming connections, and turning those first conversations into real friendships — both online and in person across Portugal.

That’s exactly what we saw in our latest “Just Landed” event — and it’s what makes this community so special.

Seeing people take those steps, settle in, and then support others starting out is something we genuinely love being part of 💞

expatsportugal.com/event/260326/ Since Brexit, visas and residency in Portugal aren’t as straightforward for UK nationals as they once were… 🇵🇹

What used to feel simple is now part of a much more complex system — with delays, stricter requirements, and processes that aren’t always clear.

We’re seeing more and more people caught off guard, especially when it comes to renewals, appointments, and knowing exactly what’s expected.

So we’ve invited our immigration experts from Ei! Migration Agency to help clarify things and answer questions from our community.

If this is something that affects you (or might soon), don't miss our webinar this Thursday 26th March at 7:30pm Lisbon time.

🇵🇹 Moving to or living in Portugal? Here’s a Stress Point Many People Don’t Expect…
When you’re planning, you prepare for the big things — visas, housing, paperwork. But one thing that often catches people off guard is how stressful money transfers can be, especially when you’re moving large amounts for a home or setting up your new life.

In the first episode of our new Expats Series, we chat with Sarah Davie about the real worries people face around money & currency exchange — things like:

...not knowing where your money is during a transfer
...feeling stuck with online systems when you just want to talk to a real person
...the anxiety of making a mistake with big financial decisions
...and more

It’s an honest conversation about a part of relocation that doesn’t get talked about enough, but affects almost everyone.

expatsportugal.com/event/190326/ What’s it really like when you first land in Portugal? 🇵🇹
The excitement… the surprises… and the moments when it suddenly hits you: “We’re actually living here now.”

This Thursday 19 March at 7:30pm (Lisbon time) we’ll be chatting with members of our community who have just arrived in Portugal and are sharing their first impressions while everything is still fresh.

From the little discoveries that made them smile, to the things that caught them completely off guard, we’ll hear what those first days and weeks on the ground have really been like.

If you’re planning your move to Portugal or thinking about a scouting trip, this is a great chance to hear honest experiences from people who are living it right now – including a few things they wish they’d known before arriving.

Already living in Portugal? Come along and help welcome the newcomers. Your stories, tips, and reassurances can make a huge difference to people who are just starting their journey 💞

Our Portuguese courses offer more than just language lessons. They’re a chance to learn alongside others in the community who are also finding their place in Portugal.

With experienced teacher and cultural guide Filomena Pascoal, the focus isn’t just grammar or vocabulary. The lessons explore how Portuguese is really used in everyday life, helping you feel more comfortable speaking with neighbours, in cafés, at the market, and in daily interactions that help you become part of the community.

Many participants find that learning together also leads to new friendships, shared experiences, and continued conversations beyond the classroom.

✨ Confidence — start real conversations from the very first lessons
✨ Community — learn alongside people on the same journey
✨ Connection — understand more about Portuguese culture and everyday life

Whether you’re starting from the beginning or building confidence with the basics, the courses focus on practical Portuguese that helps you feel more at home here.
