As discussions around Portugal’s citizenship law continue into 2026, many people are unsure what is confirmed, what is still under discussion, and how potential changes may affect their plans.
This webinar is designed for people already living in Portugal as well as those considering a move, offering clear, up-to-date information in a space focused on understanding, context, and practical planning, not speculation or headlines.
We are joined by Rodolfo Pellicano, partner at Reis & Pellicano International Lawyers, who will share expert legal insight into the current situation and what to realistically expect next.
Including:
- Understand residency vs citizenship: what each allows you to do and how it affects your plans
- Know the current rules: what remains in force today and what applies to you
- Proposed changes and election outcomes: what is still under discussion for 2026
- How it affects you: whether you’re already living in Portugal or planning a move
- Plan your timeline: how residency is counted and common misconceptions to avoid
- Separate fact from fiction: identify reliable information and avoid rumours
- Your questions answered: live Q&A with expert guidance for your individual situation
Even if Portuguese citizenship is not your immediate goal, understanding how residency and citizenship differ and how current discussions may shape future options can be an important part of planning a move to Portugal.
This session is designed to support informed decision-making, helping you move forward with clarity and confidence, whatever your long-term plans may be. Don’t miss the opportunity to have your questions addressed directly by a legal expert
