🇵🇹 Our Portugal Visa Application Process

How to apply for your Portugal visa with MUGC

THE MARK US GLOBAL ADVANTAGE

Our Streamlined Visa Consultancy Process

Applying for a Portugal Schengen Visa shouldn't be a source of stress. At Mark Us Global Consultancy, we specialize in the specific nuances of the Portuguese Embassy in Islamabad, particularly their requirement for a "Termo de Responsabilità" and their high standard for "Social and Economic Ties." From the VFS Global submission in Karachi to the mandatory €30,000 health insurance, we handle the complexities so you don't have to.

E-Visa Portal & Appointment

We complete your application on the official Portugal E-Visa portal and secure your biometrics slot at VFS Global.

Appointment at VFS Global

We guide you through the submission. The visa fee is currently €90 (approx. PKR 31,000) for adults, payable in PKR at the center.

Document Dossier Prep

We compile your mandatory files, including the Schengen-compliant insurance, NADRA FRC, and employment letters. If you are visiting family, we assist with the Termo de Responsabilidade (Statement of Responsibility).

Visa Retrieval & Briefing

Once your passport is returned, we provide a final briefing on the 90/180-day rule and the new EES (Entry/Exit System) biometrics you will encounter at Lisbon or Porto airports.

Why choose us

Why Choose MUGC for Visa Assistance

We don’t just process applications; we build futures. Our mission is to provide transparent, reliable, and high-quality consultancy services that empower our clients to achieve their dreams of global mobility.

Expert Guidance

Portugal is very strict about document translation. We ensure every document is in Portuguese or English and properly attested by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), which is a mandatory requirement for Pakistani applicants.

Timely Support

Standard processing in 2026 takes about 15 calendar days, but it can extend to 45 days. We help you book your appointment at the VFS Global centers in Karachi, Lahore, or Islamabad at least 2 months before your trip to avoid seasonal delays.

Success Rate

We boost your approval chances by auditing your 6-month bank statements to meet Portugal's subsistence rule (€40–€95 per day depending on accommodation) and ensuring your FBR tax returns for the last two years are meticulously organized.

Visa Requirements

Key Documentation for Seamless Visa Applications

Yes. As a Schengen Visa, it allows travel across all 29 member countries. However, Portugal must be your main destination (where you stay the longest).

For a solo traveler, we recommend a closing balance of at least PKR 1,500,000. If your accommodation isn’t prepaid, you should show at least €95 (~PKR 28,000) per day.

You need a Termo de Responsabilidade signed by your host and certified by a Public Notary in Portugal, along with a copy of their Portuguese ID or Residence Card.

Most applicants only provide biometrics at VFS. However, the Embassy in Islamabad may call you for a personal interview if they need to clarify your “Intent of Return”.

You can apply up to 6 months before your trip. Given the high demand in Karachi, we recommend starting at least 3 months early.
