Consulate-General of Portugal in Goa

Jack
Jack, that's a good point. Technically, after liberation, all Goans were defaulted to an Indian citizenship whether they liked it or not. The Portuguese citizenship process for Goans offered by Portugal merely makes an ancestral connection with those born before sixty one, who were considered Portuguese by Portugal. Once their birth is registered in Portugal, whether India denies it or not, they're Portuguese citizens. Then once their children are registered, they become Portuguese through this route as well. Their children can become citizens because the parent then was Portuguese also.

Sanzio
Sanzio, I don't know of any barristers in Bombay to help you in your case. You'd have to come to Goa or make some sort of arrangement with a barrister in Goa and likely post your documents if that barrister agrees. Your best option is to come to Goa.

Maria
Maria, marriage registration takes about two months. I'm not sure about death registration as I've not done that in our process on account of my father still being alive. But I presume it shouldn't take long as well, maybe give or take three or four months or so. So for both processes combined, it should take in total about six or seven months (give or take).

Sanzio
Your third process shouldn't take too long.

I can suggest Emerico/ Elvino Pereira if you're in Goa. Here's their website link: http://goanportuguesepassport.com/

If you're in Portugal or the UK, you can contact their partner: https://www.npadvogados.com/

I hear Bernardo Reis is good as well, though he's in Portugal:

Details maybe found in their respective websites.

Yes its compulsory school leaving certificate wont do. You need to show a Municipal Birth Certificate from your state.

To Ezequiel
Speaking Portuguese doesn’t make you Portuguese. There are over two hundred million Brazilians speaking Portuguese. They don’t get nationality do they ?

By your logic the child of two Portuguese citizens born in the US who grew up there and only speaks English wouldn’t be eligible for citizenship. But someone from Mozambique would ?

If you’re referring to ethnicity then the only “real” Portuguese are White European Caucasians. Neither Africans nor Goans regardless of citizenship can be considered ethnically Portuguese.

Can you help???im in Mumbai want a good agent for my third process

To Ezequiel
Nationality is not granted. Rather it’s attributed. Pre nineteen sixty-one everyone in Goa were Portuguese citizens. Children born to Portuguese citizens are Portuguese citizens irrespective of place of birth or knowledge of Portuguese.
So Goans aren’t being granted nationality, only an official record is made in the Central Registry of those who are already Portuguese citizens.
No Portuguese law can change that. It would be akin to stripping Portuguese citizens by origin of nationality everywhere, worldwide.
