Here you can find an overview of the areas we cover in Portugal. The Danish Embassy in Lisbon reports to the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is, therefore, Denmark’s official representation in Portugal and the accredited countries.

Consular service

The consular department provides service and assistance to Danish citizens who require it during their travel or stay in the countries where the Embassy is accredited. This work includes, for example, issuing passports or assisting Danish citizens who find themselves in difficult situations such as serious illness, death, or imprisonment. In this task, the consular department is supported by honorary consulates located throughout Portugal. Consular services also include elaboration of declarations, legalisations and translations of official Danish documents. The services provided by the consular department are subject to the consular assistance fees set by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For more information on the above mentioned topics, please visit the Danish page Rejse og ophold.

NB. The Danish Foreign Service is not empowered to grant funds in cases where Danish nationals and foreign nationals with a permanent address in Denmark are in need while travelling abroad. This applies whether it concerns requests to borrow money for a ticket back to Denmark, payment of hospital bills, medical evacuation to Denmark, legal costs, etc.
