Our fleet of vehicles have an extremely large capacity so it is common for multiple removals to be housed in one lorry for European home removals. Our small loads, also known as shared loads or groupage to Portugal are ideal if you only have a few boxes to move or an average-sized home move. By choosing part-load shipping, your belongings will be combined with other households in a high-capacity container to save time and reduce transport costs.

How Our Moving to Portugal Service Works
When moving home to Portugal, our professional team can help you to prepare. Whether you are moving furniture to Portugal as part of a full household move or moving just a few boxes, we can help. Since Portugal is a member of the European Union (EU), British Citizens moving to Portugal must comply with specific requirements following Brexit. To move from UK to Portugal, you will typically need to apply for a visa, which is best to do before booking your household removals to plan ahead for any delays or problems with your Portuguese visa. You can travel to countries in the Schengen area, including Portugal for up to 90 days as a British Citizen, after which you will need to apply for a Portuguese visa. Once you have moved to Portugal, you must also communicate with the local authorities, including applying for a residence permit. Portuguese residency permits are split into temporary stay visas for stays of up to a year, residency visas which are valid for 4 months during which the holder is required to request a residency permit with the Immigration and Border Services (SEF). Job seeker visas are also available in Portugal, which authorises subordinated work activity until the visa expires or a residence permit is granted. You’ll also need to apply for a global health insurance card and a private insurance policy under some visa types. Once you have made an enquiry with us, you’ll be assigned a Move Coordinator who will discuss all moving requirements with you and ensure you are aware of a Portugal customs clearance. We’ll also conduct a thorough moving survey to help create your Portugal moving quote. This can be conducted through either a home visit moving quote or a video survey to assess and measure your belongings and advise on the costs of moving your belongings from the UK to Portugal. If you are aware of any access issues for your new home such as narrow or very steep country lanes or other obstacles, it is best to mention this to your move advisor at this stage of your international removals so we can plan accordingly. Additionally, some rural locations can be hard to access at particular times of the year, your move specialist may discuss move options depending on the time of year you will be moving.
