Hello Everyone - Happy New Year!

We are UK passport holders currently resident in Durban, South Africa and are planning to relocate to the Algarve in 2021. We want to make a visit in the first quarter of 2021 to attempt to find a place to buy or rent but it looks like there are currently travel restrictions in place that would prevent us doing this.

Does anyone happen to know if there is a Portuguese government website that could clarify entry requirements please bearing in mind Covid-19 restrictions etc?

We'd appreciate any advice.

Thank you Ana - good sources of information but it

looks like we going to have to wait this situation out - however long that is!
